Senator Sheldon Whitehouse actually seems to be very keen on climate.

The greatest existential threats to life is the ongoing climate catastrophe, nuclear weans, and now AI.
I have 0 candidates on my ballot who have a platform that includes dismantling the nuclear warheads.
I have 0 candidates on my ballot who say they'll work to ban carbon, or establish a carbon tax to rapidly decarbonize. Best I got is "we'll be 100% renewable by 2040" but with no practical plan to achieve it.
I have no candidates on my ballot that say they'll establish laws banning the use of AI by police, military, or other government or regulated industries (banks, insurance, etc). Only some focus on the data centers, but not the use of the dangerous tech.
And I live in a district with Rank Choice voting with many write in candidates. It seems the good potential candidates just have no hope to try to run :(
Legitimately so many other things worth voting for this season. It might be the last election the US has for a while.
Don’t let click seekers seed a bunch of wedge issues at the last second
VOTE
Yeah, but are they voting, or are they using the concern for the climate as an excuse to not vote? Because if it's the second one...why would politicians represent the interests of nonvoters?
Yeah no they don't. If they did, they wouldn't be voting republican. The party of climate change is a hoax and dinosaur bones were planted by Satan.
Don’t know why you’re downvoted, it’s true. To call yourself a Republican, a conservative, and to vote that way is the antithesis of caring about climate change.
Every single Republican candidate on the ballot, every serving member of the GOP, every Republican president… all of them… have specifically denied man made climate change and politicized an issue that has 99% scientific consensus.
Buddy...
I know you love your opinions, but facts matter more than preconceived notions.
And you to to realize the science deniing you're doing right now, is the same thing you're shit talking them about, right?
What. The. Fuck. Are. You. Talking about?
Conservative dip shits believe this.
You must be a conservative dip shit yourself if you are getting so defensive here. You probably believe Satan planted dino bones like those fuck wads at this rate.
This article is about polling data that disagrees with what you're saying...
Polling and the resulting statistical analysis, is science.
You are disregarding science in favor of you're own preconceived opinions, while making fun of Republicans for doing the exact same thing.
Does any of this make sense now?
i’m basically saying the voting patterns of everybody makes this article pointless. because if people genuinely believed in climate change and genuinely gave a fuck, they voted like it. But unfortunately, tankies were more concerned about their feelings and Maga doesn’t believe it exists.
So yeah. Any article that states voters care about climate change is horseshit because a lot of voters apparently don’t care much about anything except for was in front of them the next day.
We want to feel like we care, but we couldn't care less. Some really do, but it's not the majority in any case. It's far more reasonable to be apathetic, and prepare for the eventuality.

That could only be true if no one ever changed how they voted...
Like, I don't understand why you think two years ago trump's today.
It's not "an article", it's science, and you're saying it doesn't matter because you have feelings that are different.
How is that different than RFK jr?
