EXCERPT:

AVLON: "The Trump Administration made this official policy, withdrawing from the Paris Climate Accords, rolling back environmental regulations, and placing climate change skeptics in scientific positions. So despite increased data, melting Polar ice caps and more extreme weather events, we’ve seen a growing partisan gap on whether combating climate change should be a priority, getting to stunning 57-point spread in the 2020 Pew survey. The question now is whether this partisan fever will break, because denialism is dangerous. We’re always safest and strongest when we confront reality and then harness the power of science to solve our common problems. And that’s your reality check."
