I apologize for the strongish language, but the truth is, this is GREAT news, Xema. GREAT news.

If America was to be the only country to pay for this, hypothetically we'd only have to pay about $266 dollars a year. Just $266 a year!

Folks, that's less than paying a month's worth of bills. That's less than about three weeks' worth of groceries for a middle class family.

It's not that hard, we CAN combat climate change, and it's simpler than many think(at least in some ways)! The only major problem is, when will the world's governments finally act?

It's not too late to act. But better to act sooner than later.
