I don’t care what Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s drawbacks might be. She’s the only legislator even attempting to put climate change in the forefront, thus she’s the only one doing anything that matters.

Nearly everything else we do is irrelevant now compared to that vast cataclysm ahead of us. Part of her impetus is that she’s young — which is why we need far more young people as leaders. The 70-year-olds don’t care about climate change because they won’t have to live through it. They’ll be dead.

But she’s 29. She will have to suffer through it so it just matters more to her.

Regardless, she’s the only one working on what really matters. Relatively, everything else is nearly irrelevant compared to climate change.
