4Trump's first 100 days have been a catastrophic step-back on addressing climate change and an assault on science. https://t.co/OX4UPUv3tL

7We need science-based public policy, not a retreat to political-based beliefs when it comes to climate change & clean energy investments.

7We should embrace the economic growth and job creation that has resulted from American innovation and clean energy deployment.

7Just as we did 47 years ago, America finds itself at a tipping point. Clean energy is no longer just an alternative, it is our future.

7He's promised to roll back the Clean Power Plan and withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement. None of this will Make America Great Again.

7He's filling his administration with climate-deniers. His budget would slash funding for the EPA by 31%.

7DJT vowed to Make America Great Again, but his recent attacks on science and unilateral retreat on climate action will do just the opposite.

6As we celebrate #EarthDay our country stands at a critical crossroads. Will we continue to lead on global climate change or will we retreat?

5We need to move beyond the evidence of climate change. The science is settled. We need to activate people, inspire them to make a difference
