Presidential debate shows candidates are struggling to address
climate change concerns
By STEVE PEOPLES
AP National Political Writer
NEW YORK (AP) — The eight Republican presidential
candidates on the debate stage were asked to raise
their hands if they believed human behavior is causing
climate change.
Not a single hand went up.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis shut down the question and
attacked the “corporate media.” Echoing the words
of former President Donald Trump, Vivek Ramaswamy
called climate change “a hoax” and a “wet blanket on
our economy.” Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., insisted that more
serious environmental threats are coming from China,
India and Africa.
Just one Republican, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki
Haley, said during Wednesday night’s debate in
Milwaukee that climate change “is real.”
A day later, frustrated leaders in the GOP’s small but
growing movement of environmental activists said their
party must do better. Haze from wildfires in Canada is visible in New York City from the Empire State Building observatory,
June 7, 2023, in New York.
