John Abraham, mechanical engineering professor at the University of St. Thomas School of Engineering, recently spoke with ABC News about how former President Donald Trump and current Vice President Kamala Harris missed the chance to discuss how environmental policies and green energy could affect both the economy and efforts to fight climate change.
From the story:
Climate change remains on the backburner of the 2024 election following little mention of environmental policy during the first – and possibly only – debate between the two presidential candidates.
Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump faced off for the first time on Tuesday night from the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, where neither candidate dedicated ample time to addressing what they would do to reduce the nation’s greenhouse gas emissions and bolster the clean energy industry. ...
Climate change has not taken center stage this election cycle due to other topics – such as the economy, immigration and abortion – but that doesn’t mean that reducing greenhouse gas emissions is any less important, John Abraham, a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota, told ABC News.
