The US has no comprehensive climate action plan with clear, enforceable targets, timelines, and roadmaps for climate protection and restabilization—and it desperately needs one.
Last year was the hottest on Earth in 125,000 years and the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere was the highest in four million years and still climbing at an ever-increasing rate.
Climate change is also putting an increasingly heavy burden on our social safety net, which could ultimately cause social order to break down, generating chaos.
A national climate action plan is urgently needed, says Julian Zelizer .
Zelizer : U.S. needs to upgrade electrical grid and produce millions of solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, carbon-capture machines, and zero -emission vehicles.
A strong popular pressure must be built on Congress to ensure the creation of a climate plan, Zelizer says.
The American environmental community is siloed, with each major organization catering to its own constituency, interests, and funders.
A broad civil society gathering should be convened to attract the leadership of all environmental and climate action groups.
That gathering would focus on the roadblocks to implementing such a plan and to a swift, national clean-energy transition.
