Letter to the editor: Tackling climate change with maturity

Climate change is as inevitable as the sunrise. Political factions threatening climate change legislation are very narrow-minded. They advocate for the poor. Fine, the poor will be well fed but also the first to suffer from extreme weather events. Unlimited food stamps will be of no use then.

The progressives do not seem to understand that a foundation (climate management) is needed as well as help for the poor. Do not sacrifice one for the other. “My position or nothing” is childlike. It shows a lack of maturity.

We seem to have made some mistakes electing politicians with zeal but no respect for science when it contradicts their beliefs.
