Joe was a great sidekick and confidante for President Obama.

That said, the world has moved on past, VP Biden. The singularity and immediacy of climate change, especially considering the time consuming environmental protections repairs needed after the 45 rampage, necessitates someone with a deep, up-to-date understanding of what our next generations are facing and the will to make our planet their top priority.

Are our senior Democratic Party members able to grasp the immediacy felt by our nation's youth?

Climate Change is smack dab in the middle of young folks’ plate. They see the pace of the world’s response as a big, “it’s up to you kids, good luck.” Is their, “The house is on fire,” approach not quite understandable? Is not their “tone” iappropriate given the circumstances? Is, “You didn’t vote for me” ever a response to their worries and concerns? Was the Senior Senator from California being condescending, patronizing?

Seriously,

Everything seriously discussed today needs be first considered from an environmental point of view. Every other POV, at this late hour, is a secondary waste of time. Every dollar directed, with positive environmental impact as its motivation, is well spent, but the massive grassroots uprising needed to save humanity’s place here must rise up out of love for our collective home...Earth. Money can’t buy that.
