Other ways of looking at the environmental or climate change stuff is to frame it in the context that it is simultaneously a public health issue. One out of eight premature deaths worldwide happens because of air pollution. The worst power plant in America kills 278 people a year and causes 445 heart attacks.

We must see climate policy from this perspective and not as an abstract threat that may threaten our survival in 100 years.

People have no confidence that Washington, both sides of aisle, are coming together to try and do what's right for the economy.
