Biden vs. Trump: Do young climate voters care?
www.politico.com
The president who signed the biggest climate law in U.S. history has also angered environmentalists by approving fossil fuel projects. Now, the head of one group says, "I’m worried about getting climate activists back."

To be clear: there’s a night-and-day difference between Biden and Trump, with the former having actually taking significant action, and being likely to take more if reelected. Trump will look to maximize both extraction and consumption of fossil fuels in a way that Biden simply didn’t and won’t.

    I don’t disagree but was responding to the use of the phrase “significant action”

    As well as “night and day” when it’s more like “midnight and sunset”

      I agree. The phrasing of this “largest in history” narrative depends strongly on the fact that the US has done almost nothing to address climate change historically. This should be thoughtfully criticized but I worry this will discourage people into thinking that nothing can be done.
