Congrats, GPPA, on the co-sponsorship. This could be one opportunity for the party to raise its statewide profile. If so, the GPPA and candidates might declare (or tagline) public support for 2030 as the deadline for net-neutral or carbon-free emissions.
Weeks before the 2020 election, I learned from the Howie Hawkins campaign -- then the Green Party presidential candidate -- that 2030 is the projected year that Earth's average temperature warms by at least 1.5 Celsius. It's why I reversed course from my support of the Paris Agreement, whose signatories have committed to 2050 as the deadline to net-neutralize greenhouse gas emissions -- particularly, CO2. (See "10/23/20: The Missing Black Voters Washington Post" (Q3), which references the period of my 2020 interview by The Washington Post rather than its publication in Q4. Also see Why I think Biden's Black agenda won't work (Q4). Both are below.) In addition, the state party might volunteer -- at scale -- for a high-contact committee i.e. the Events, March, Media, or Outreach Committees. Even if members don green shirts while collecting garbage and plastic water bottles, I believe the party will make a lasting impression ahead of the general election. #PAClimateConvergence ![]()
