"[C]limate change is just a very, very expensive form of tax."

"I believe in climate change caused by human beings. What I'm skeptical about is the glib notion that it means the end of the world as we know it."

"The clock is no longer just ticking, it is banging."

"There is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change."

"The time for seeking global solutions [to climate change] is running out."

"The climate crisis is the existential threat. That's not hyperbole; it's a fact."

"[W]e are killing our planet."

Climate change is "above all, an existential crisis."

"Climate change is one of the greatest challenges mankind faces."

"If we don't take action, the collapse of our civilisations and the extinction of much of the natural world is on the horizon."

"Humanity is on thin ice — and that ice is melting fast."

"We haven't yet exceeded the bounds of viable human civilisation, but we're getting close."

"The One Big Beautiful Bill is phasing out preferential tax credits for intermittent, costly, and unreliable green energy projects!"

"With the One Big, Beautiful Bill we can unleash American energy development."

"The US is falling behind when it comes to clean energy investment. This is about to get worse."

This bill is "cruel, costly, and damaging to our climate."

Trump's bill "brings a sledgehammer to clean energy in America — hurting our fight against climate change while raising energy costs and slashing good-paying jobs."

These bills "push those goals [to cut greenhouse gases 61 to 66 percent below 2005 levels by 2035] far out of reach."

"Yes. Unquestionably [this bill will harm clean energy development and manufacturing across the country]."

Will the One Big Beautiful Bill Act Put US Climate Goals Out of Reach?
