And while the video was shot before California's mandatory quarantine was put in place, the video is a nod to how many of us are living and communicating with friends in this time of social distancing. It's also not too far off from how Audrey has been spending her time during thecoronavirus pandemic is perhaps the United States government’s most robust attempt to make a dent in the country’s outsize carbon emissions and end its reliance on fossil fuels, both of which propel the ongoing climate disaster when in use (burning them releases harmful chemicals into the atmosphere) and during extraction (via methods like oil drilling and coal mining, which cause irreparable damage to the environment). The Green New Deal also seeks to address the dire income inequality that has existed since European colonizers stepped foot on this native land, and has only been exacerbated by climate change, both here and on global terms. This policy proposal isn’t a fix-all, but it is an ambitious program that, if implemented, has the potential to enact real, much-needed change, especially if other entities (for example, New York City, whose city council recently passed a Climate Mobilization Act) are inspired to take action on a local level.
