While the American people have the impression that scientists are hard at work figuring out this complex matter of climate change, it's not actually that complicated.

My grandmother is a Holocaust survivor. Some heroes of mine have long been the Jewish Partisans, these young people who just went into the woods with whatever guns and bombs and what not they could get their hands on, and just would fight Nazis, and try to help people escape.
