Demand for a Green New Deal rocking the nation

 

In a presentation to the CPUSA National Board, John Bachtell, CP National Chairman warns that the warning signs of a planetary emergency abound: Record heat, massive wildfires, extreme weather events – you name it.

The latest report by the UN International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) ominously warns the Earth’s inhabitants have 12 years to avert the worst climate catastrophes. The proposal for a Green New Deal demanding a dramatic shift to green jobs must be acted on with an urgency never seen before.

How to pay for it? Tax the rich! How to achieve it? Build a broad movement to defeat the Trump Agenda. It’s a matter of life and breath!!
