What Should be Done?Enact comprehensive legislation that:(1) puts strong limits on carbon pollution (2) reduces U.S. dependence on oil (3) drives the innovation necessary to create millions of
clean energy jobs(4) ensures our natural resources are healthy and
strong enough to survive the impacts of climate change that we are already seeing today.
That’s easier
said than done.

Policy Outcomes
1. Compliance 2. Inaction 3. Resistance
Valid rebuttals include: 4. Federal budget deficit5. Scientific data refuting climate change6. Policy alternatives (inexpensive)7. Discussion of the many unknown factors affecting

Climate change impacts state sovereignty and global security… however, there is hope for increased public awareness, and immediate government action regarding this issue in the near future.
