It's just straight up not true, especially in the crisis we're in now where

The war in Iran where prices are going through the roof and everyone who has an EV is like, great.

Yeah, I mean, there's also this big question mark about whether New York City right now is going to go back on its promise as a... Sorry, as a state, New York is going to go back on its promise to decarbonize, right?

To shift to renewable energy.

And I haven't heard...

Mayor Mamdani say anything about like, no, we need to stick to this.

And I get that he's like building an alliance with the governor.

And like, I'm sure there's a lot of strategy going on around it.

But like, we got to keep plowing ahead on our climate goals instead of just letting them fall by the wayside without even a public conversation happening about that.

There is actually urgency.

And we have, I mean, I think to take a step back,

I feel like the one thing I want people to understand about climate change is we have the solutions we need.

We know how to transition to clean energy.

We know how to do public transit and electrify our transit.

We know to do green buildings.

We know how to improve our agriculture.

We know to protect and restore ecosystems.

It's not like...

We need to wait for magic or fusion or whatever.

Right.
