What we need is serious people to talk about this issue in a serious way that is going to address the challenge. And let me just let her answer the question, was it a mistake for the president of the United States to take the option of inserting u. S. Combat Ground Troops off the table .

Our generation will be judged by whether we were responsible about Climate Change, whether we listened and whether we led. Senator manchin and i are both committed to the idea that American Innovation can create the Clean Energy Technologies of the future, that when it comes to addressing the biggest problems facing our world, the United States should be out front, and we are committed to working together to find responsible solutions to
