The future is progressive. Problem is, the climate can't wait.

[DanTex]

Polls like this are cause for optimism about the future, from a progressive point of view. If only we could hit the pause button on the climate.
Younger people need to realize that if they still want to have a planet when they get to be older people, they need to get out and vote now. Because the window for aggressive climate action is closing.

2. Is this about climate or older bashing?

If it is about climate here is an article about Biden's plan

Biden's Climate Plan Embraces Green New Deal, Goes Beyond Obama-Era Ambition

3. It's about the generational divide.

Bernie has the best climate plan by far. Part of why young voters prefer him by large margins.

But they need to figure out that if they don’t go out and vote, then that plan and all the other progressive things that will improve their lives aren’t going to happen.

6. Why is Bernie's plan 'better?' What metrics are you using

besides "Because Bernie?"

7. Another unsupported assertion.

"Bernie has the best climate plan by far."
Another unsupported assertion.

"why young voters prefer him by large margins."
Same as above, plus post hoc ergo propter hoc.



Credibility relies on rational thought, not bumper stickers.

4. ALL our candidates will help climate change by enacting policies to reduce carbon emissions

This is not an issue solely of Bernie Sanders as is being portrayed here.

Sens. Booker, Harris, Warren, Gillebrand and Klobuchar, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Congressman Swalwell, Secretary Julian Castro and VP Joe Biden all would or would have worked to alleviate climate change.

It is disingenuous to ascribe that attribute only to Sanders.
