"We are all very familiar with how the fossil fuel industry has lied to the public over decades and continues to lobby against climate action."

"I want to call attention to the fact that the latest IPCC report I believe for the first time explicitly calls out settler colonialism and capitalism as major causes of climate vulnerability."

"I want to start off by emphasizing that we are in a climate emergency, as the most recent IPCC report has reminded us yet again."

"In response, we need urgent, transformative action from Congress and the Administration."
