Quoting a report from the Presidential Action Committee of the Climate Action Project (too many groups!), Mother Jones says let states (continue to) lead; cut oil/gas/coal subsidies within the president's control; focus on ecosystem restoration.
But that's hardly the only plan. Bill McKibben wrote a great piece saying it's time to get angry, then get moving on what we really want: cutting carbon. To do that, we need to fight for a carbon price. Forget compromise -- demand what we want and let others compromise: http://ow.ly/2mUGt
Then Craig Severance says in Energy Economy Online that we should focus on the direct culprits: machines and buildings that depend on carbon fuels. The President has a lot of leeway to set performance standards. http://ow.ly/2mUL2
And finally (perhaps), Al Gore is holding a Virtual Town Hall Tuesday evening to discuss next steps; find the invitation somewhere in http://ow.ly/2mURP
What do you think we should do, at this stage?
