Sanders Statement on U.N. Climate Change Report

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27 – Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) issued the following statement after the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released its latest report.

“Once again, the world’s leading scientists on climate change have spoken. Their conclusion is that global warming is real, that it is already causing enormous problems for our planet, and that it will only get worse unless we take bold action to cut greenhouse gas emissions and transform our energy system. It is long past time for Congress to address this major planetary crisis.”
