The Environmental Entrepreneurs (E2) advocacy group organized a letter to every member of the new Congress imploring them to “take immediate and ambitious action” to address the economic threats of climate change. It was signed by more than 500 business leaders and other professionals and was released on Jan. 8.

“Congress has not only the power, but the obligation, to act to prevent the worst effects of climate change as soon as possible,” the letter reads. “Congress has debated this topic for decades, including examining the human influence of climate change in high profile hearings held in 1988. The 116th Congress can wait no longer to act.”
