Pushing the GOP to Take Action on Climate Change

Season 2020 Episode 3041 | 2m 58s

Scientists say there's no doubt that recent extreme weather is driven by climate change. Yet the RNC will have nothing to say about it. Environmentalist and Republican Benji Backer grew up knocking on doors for John McCain and Mitt Romney. In college, he created the American Conservation Coalition to engage young conservatives on climate change and push the GOP to take action.
