Climate crisis ‘will be worse than COVID’: Schumer
Fox News
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Wednesday that the climate crisis will be worse than the coronavirus pandemic and that Democrats are ready to respond with "big, bold action" unlike anything the U.S. and "this world has ever seen before."
"This is a unique opportunity," he said. "We are surrounded by evidence of the climate crisis — the fires out West, the heat waves, the floods — everywhere you look. "Because of global warming, things are getting worse and worse. And I tell my constituents in New York: COVID was horrible, but if we do nothing on climate, starting within a few short years from now, each year will be worse than COVID, and each year will be worse than the previous year."More Related News
