I am sorry that Sam Daley-Harris brought up Citizens Climate Lobby since it's a bogus organization with very conservative economic leanings that cannot truly help to resolve our climate crisis. They are a one focus legislative lobby group trying to say that a carbon tax with dividends for the people will suffice by being revenue neutral but that approach will not work under our current structure of governance in Washington, D.C. nor should it work. In fact, if such legislation would pass, well, it would create a global depression. I could go on at length about this in detail but the CCL isn't being forthright about their math on this matter.

I assume Mr. Daley-Harris has not looked closely into the specifics if he's been concentrating on mostly poverty topics. Other groups, like the Sierra Club, are transparent and offering transformational work. I encourage people to truly question the motives behind CCL as well as their having a leader with a corporate coaching-style that has spreads propaganda regarding their miscalculation about our climate emergency--a narrow focus not well thought out with questionable leaders serving on their board too.

Please do your due diligence before getting too excited about where you align yourself on climate change. I have been in advocate in this arena for a decade. Otherwise, good interview!

Loved this interview. Thanks Marianne and Sam . I’m in Canada and am going to try and find an organisation like the ones suggested . I’m a recently retired high school teacher who would like to get involved.
