Edward Markey actually said...

You can put a band-aid on it here and there, and you try to put together policies that deal with the band-aid, but you have to step back and look at the larger kind of climate cancer that is out there and say, what can we do to reduce the longer-term impacts that are going to be profound?

Context

Markey emphasizes the need for comprehensive solutions to climate change rather than temporary fixes.
