Grassroots organizing and appealing to industry leaders are crucial steps. “If you look at the long history of environmental protection in this country, what you will see is that people move forward, and then Congress follows, because you have to set a floor,” she says. “It may not ever be as much as we all hoped for, but it will be a step, and then we have to argue for more.”</span></span></div><div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 17px;" class=""><span style="font-kerning: none;" class=""></span><br class=""></div><div style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 238);" class=""><span style="text-decoration: underline; font-kerning: none;" class=""><a href="https://www.newyorker.com/podcast/political-scene/two-perspectives-on-the-future-of-the-green-new-deal" target="_blank" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.newyorker.com/podcast/political-scene/two-perspectives-on-the-future-of-the-green-new-deal&source=gmail&ust=1567533799043000&usg=AFQjCNGmTiVGhVGYOufAtZrzUfB8WG1NfQ" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);" class="">https://www.newyorker.com/<wbr class="">podcast/political-scene/two-<wbr class="">perspectives-on-the-future-of-<wbr class="">the-green-new-deal</a></span></div><div class="">
