Sinopse

On Feb. 11, 2016, 350.org Co-Founder Bill McKibben and grassroots leaders joined Congressman Jared Huffman (D-CA) and 16 other members of Congress to introduce the “Keep It In the Ground Bill,” in the U.S. House of Representatives. This legislation would prohibit new leases for coal, oil, and gas on all federal lands and waters, halting new leases for offshore drilling in the Pacific and the Gulf of Mexico, and permanently protecting the Arctic and Atlantic coasts. Today we’ll be joined by Bill McKibben and Tara Houska, the National Campaigns Director of Honor the Earth and a Native American advisor to the Bernie Sanders campaign.
