For years, the threat of climate change has been the subject of sharp disagreement. Then last month, something unusual happened. At a time when political divisions had become increasingly raw, Congress passed a bipartisan package of legislation to combat climate change. More may be on the way. Rep. Scott Peters, D-San Diego, has been in the thick of all of this. He introduced one of the key measures approved late last year, played a leading role in others and is pursuing additional legislation this year from his position on the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Advertisement Peters, along with others, took a leading role in legislation to encourage development of carbon-capture technologies and a 15-year phase-out of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), the highly polluting coolants used in refrigerators and air conditioners. Those measures were included in a massive spending bill signed by President Donald Trump shortly before he left office.
