Hansen: Lesko should follow DOD on climate change

Posted

Rep. Debbie Lesko, R-Ariz., justifies the need for her Hands Off Our Home Appliances Act by asserting: “No government bureaucrat should ever scheme to take away Americans’ appliances in the name of a radical environmental agenda.”

According to the Department of Defense: “As greenhouse gas emissions increase, sea levels are rising, average global temperatures are increasing, and severe weather patterns are accelerating. These changes…will devastate homes, land and infrastructure.”

The U.S. military has expressed concern about climate change since the George H. W. Bush administration, and dozens of Defense Department Documents on this issue can be accessed at climateandsecurity.org.

A search of Rep. Lesko’s web site for the term “climate change” produces just one result, an article entitled, “Rep. Lesko to Newsmax: Biden Climate Actions ‘Hypocritical’”

What climate plan does Rep. Lesko endorse that matches the scope of the problem?
