What people are experiencing in the Pacific Northwest now is not just a heatwave; it’s a new normal that’s been foretold by climate scientists for quite a while. It will bring with it other disasters also foretold. Neither major political party has been willing to forestall it.

People from both parties have been burying their heads in the sand ... Like Senator Manchin ... who thinks bipartisanship is more important than saving our planet!

It would be best to take into consideration how they manipulate the weather all the time. Dan Winnington can tell you the affect of spraying aresols in the sky every day for 60 years. You cant talk about climate change without addressing this issue.

We need new Independent candidates. Parties suck.

Not true. Al Gore, Dem pushed for national chgs to minimize the effects of climate chg. Jimmy Carter, Dem, fought for climate chg legislation and installed solar panels on the White House. Ronald Reagan removed the panels to appease their oil/gas funders. Repubs block progress.

Lol. We have had heat waves and cold spells for hundreds of years.

How interested you think China is in curbing pollution to fight climate change? Throwing money to the wealthy won't change the climate.

You continue to support the Dem Party in the face of this worsening crisis, hiding behind the "lesser evil" lie. A lie you will push in the next election too. You are the problem. And you are too cowardly and selfish to acknowledge it.

The Democrats are allegedly the "good guys." We're screwed. Stop supporting them.

99 in Vancouver BC today. 120 in 2-3 other cities in this province - in Canada! Records being shattered one day after another. Climate emergency denial - really??

Then we must protest and #GeneralStrike to force change now! We can no longer ignore the global #ClimateCrisis. Our time as a species is up if we don’t enact #ClimateActionNow! 😡😡😡
