Rather than inviting climate science experts with decades of experience in their fields, the four witnesses were climate change leaders and activists all under the age of 24 because, as Rep. Garret Graves (R-LA) noted these issues \u201cadversely and disproportionately affect young folks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The witnesses drove home four points during the hearing.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong> Policy solutions should be based on sound science <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nThroughout the hearing, committee members on both sides of the aisle emphasized a focus on solutions.<\/p>\n<p>As Rep. Joe Neguse (D-CO) said, \u201cWe don\u2019t need to define the problem \u2013 scientists and experts have defined the problem for us. We need to act.\u201d The witnesses echoed this need for policy based on sound science.<\/p>\n<p>Recent peer reviewed scientific reports like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalchange.gov\/nca4\">Fourth National Climate Assessment<\/a> and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/2018\/10\/08\/summary-for-policymakers-of-ipcc-special-report-on-global-warming-of-1-5c-approved-by-governments\/\">Special Report<\/a> show the science is clear \u2013 the Earth is warming at unprecedented rates and we can\u2019t afford to wait to take action.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong> Climate change affects everyone, but it hits some harder than others<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Everyone deserves access to a healthy environment, but climate change impacts do not affect all people equally. Communities of color are more likely to live in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/airqualitymaps\/oakland\/pollution-and-health-concerns-west-oakland\">polluted<\/a> and flood-prone areas, but are less likely to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2019\/03\/05\/696995788\/search-the-thousands-of-disaster-buyouts-fema-didnt-want-you-to-see%22\">receive aid like federal buyouts<\/a> after a natural disaster. Repetitive flooding, wildfires and extreme storms damage homes and businesses, putting people out of work and harming local economies.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Suggs is a college student from Kinston, North Carolina, which was still recovering from Hurricane Matthew when Hurricane Florence hit two years later. He told the committee, \u201cMy town\u2019s socioeconomic challenges cannot be divorced from the extreme weather we\u2019ve experienced. Poverty and hurricanes are deeply intertwined for us\u2026climate change is an extra kick to communities that are already down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Climate change will only increase the strength and intensity of extreme weather and storms like Matthew and Florence. As Congress considers the economic repercussions of climate change, they should also consider the inequity of those impacts.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> Climate and community resilience go hand in hand<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Resilient communities can recover more quickly and more effectively after a disaster hits.<\/p>\n<p>Witnesses advocated for several approaches to support vulnerable communities dealing with climate change impacts, and emphasized that both state and federal governments can help implement disaster mitigation for communities located in high-risk areas. Investment in economic development and education can empower local communities to develop solutions that fit their own needs. For example <a href=\"https:\/\/lasafe.la.gov\/\">Louisiana\u2019s Strategic Adaptations for Future Environments<\/a> (LA SAFE) program engages local communities in a co-design process for climate change adaptation.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> The time for bipartisan leadership on climate is now<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Throughout their testimonies, the witnesses called for bipartisan federal leadership to create systemic, science-based policies that emphasize community resilience and capacity-building, especially for the country\u2019s most vulnerable populations. The call for bipartisanship was echoed by members of the committee, including Chairwoman Kathy Castor (D-FL) and Ranking Member Garret Graves (R-LA).<\/p>\n<p>Young people set the tone at last week\u2019s hearing: we can\u2019t afford to wait to enact policy changes to reduce our emissions and limit the impacts of climate change on our communities. Chairwoman Kathy Castor (D-FL) accurately captured this sentiment, noting: \u201cIt is our moral responsibility to take action.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first hearing of the U.S. House of Representatives new Select Committee on the Climate Crisis marked a positive move toward a meaningful and constructive conversation about climate action.
