Green New Deal Information

I strongly believe the Green New Deal is also roughly a proposal that not only the government gives life to in the form of action on their part (top down), but we-the-people give life to as well (bottom up). It is all hands-on-deck to save a damaged planet, that is now a required necessity. It is crucial now.

(Wikipedia) | The Green New Deal (GND) is a proposed package of United States legislation that aims to address climate change and economic inequality.[1][2][3][4] The name refers to the New Deal, a set of social and economic reforms and public works projects undertaken by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in response to the Great Depression.[5] The Green New Deal combines Roosevelt’s economic approach with modern ideas such as renewable energy and resource efficiency.[6][7]

In the 116th United States Congress, it is a pair of resolutions, House Resolution 109[8] and S. Res. 59, sponsored by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA). On March 25, 2019, Markey’s resolution failed to advance in the U.S. Senate in a margin of 0–57, with most Senate Democrats voting “present” in protest of an early vote called by Republicans.[9] Among the public, there is consistently high support among Democrats for the Green New Deal, whereas Republicans, in particular Fox News watchers, opposed the Green New Deal.[10]

Since the early 2000s, and especially since 2018, other proposals for a “Green New Deal” have arisen both in the United States and internationally.[11][12][13]
