It is urgent that we do all that we can to mitigate the effects of climate change and work to lower global warming emissions. There is so much we can do on a state level and do not have to wait for the slow gears of the federal government to act. I plan to continue the work at our state legislature to hold industries accountable for releasing dangerous compounds into our air and water. I will work hard to drive these emissions down until we are no longer part of the problem but instead can be a model for solutions.
