Why isn't the climate movement voting?
Millions of people say they care deeply about climate change ... yet they're not showing up at elections to turn their concern into political power, says environmental voting advocate Nathaniel Stinnett. In this TED Talk, he explains why increasing voter participation is essential to advancing the climate movement and shows how his team is mobilizing millions of new environmental voters — without talking about climate change at all. Even though the main reason why climate policy doesn’t progress as much is due to fossil fuel companies’ political activities, increasing climate voters coming to the polls will enhance the prospects for climate progress.
