With the world watching, today President Obama addressed the United Nations Climate Change Conference and laid a clear path for America to join an historic international endeavor and move boldly forward towards a 21st century clean energy future and a global response to the climate crisis. The U.S. Senate must now lead our country and the world and pass comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation by April 22nd, the 40th anniversary of Earth Day. What President Obama asked of the world today we must now ask of our own nation – to put aside the politics of the day and to embrace a spirit of cooperation and bold action. For the workers who need jobs, for our families who want security, and for our children and grandchildren who deserve the prosperity, safety and health that a clean energy future will bring through American leadership.
