The Difficult Domestic Politics of Climate Change

by Paul R. Pillar
Going into the first televised joint appearance (commonly called a debate) of the two major party presidential nominees, the 2016 election campaign has given disturbingly little attention to the looming long-term catastrophe represented by climate change. Certainly the issue deserves much more attention as measured by the relative intrinsic importance of topics that do get discussed. This includes not only diversionary topics such as Hillary Clinton’s emails but also real policy issues such as ones involving the political future of Syria. http://lobelog.com/the-difficult-domestic-politics-of-climate-change/#more-35973
