Overview
Climate change is an important and very real issue when it comes to politics. In Trump’s administration, Trump has failed to acknowledge the reality of climate change and removed the U.S from the Paris Agreement which helps in the efforts of combating climate change. Climate change will affect Georgia in the coming years. According to the EPA, warmer temperatures and an increase in flooding will affect Georgia’s environment. Climate change affects everyone and we need to elect people in office who believe in helping the environment.

Ossoff vs. Perdue - Climate Change
The Senate election in Georgia is in full swing and climate change is a policy issue that is up for debate because it is becoming more of a reality in our day to day lives. Let’s look at what each candidate has to say about climate change.
Jon Ossoff believes
climate change
is a vital aspect of our daily lives. Ossoff will focus on scientific research and data to combat the effects of climate change on the environment. In addition, he will make sure the U.S comes back into the Paris climate Accords. Ossoff’s main focus will be clean energy, energy efficiency, and environmental protection.
On the other hand, David Perdue has avoided speaking about climate change and is an avid supporter of Trump’s climate change policies. Perdue has allied with Trump when it came to leaving the Paris Climate agreement and supported the President's decision when it came to dismantling the Clean Power Plan in 2017. Perdue voted against a resolution in Congress that claims that climate change is real and is caused by people.
Support Jon Ossoff
In order for this country to enter back into the Paris Climate Agreement, we have to go out and vote in November and elect Ossoff, who will make sure we get back on the right track in regards to climate change. A poll done by AJC shows that 63% of Georgians believe that not enough has been done to combat climate change.
