Denial is no longer an option; mockery of the Green New Deal is not a constructive answer. It is time for serious action. We need to see a constructive proposal that keeps us from exceeding a 1.5 degrees Celsius global temperature increase. These big business lobbying groups either need to align their efforts with the business community they supposedly represent and become part of the solution, or they need to come clean about who is really funding and driving their climate agenda — and own that it's hardly a majority of their members.Sheldon Whitehouse is a U.S. Senator serving Rhode Island.
