How concern are you about climate change and how much is that impacting your vote in this upcoming election?

Although it is an important issue on my day-to-day, speaking truthfully, it's not the issue that comes first to mind when I think of like my

votership. If I personally were to be a single issue voter climate change would be

that issue because without a sustainable planet to live on like the rest of the issues kind of become moot.

When it comes to my vote for this year,

my vote is not changing based on anybody's climate control measures. I'm very concerned about climate change because it's

been too hot but it's not playing a major role in how I vote for this election specifically just because I think climate

change has already passed the point of no return. So, It's notes from America. I'm Kai Wright. Welcome to the show.

It's Notes from America. I'm Kai Wright.

Welcome to the show. Here is the top line on climate and this

presidential election. Donald Trump has called climate change a hoax.

Combele Harris has called it

it a climate change a hoax. Kamala Harris has called it an existential threat.

Now for some people as you just heard that's really all you need to know.

Personally I would like a great deal more detail on how those ideas might translate into actions

under the next presidential administration.

And you know, it's funny because on one hand I feel like there's been an enormous

evolution in the political and cultural conversation around climate change in

recent years like a lot of people know and care about this existential threat.

And yet, that energy doesn't seem to translate

into anything concrete when election time comes, not from voters and not from candidates.

And I mean the best that I can tell, climate change got about a sentence worth of attention at the Democratic National Convention, for example.
