Redford Wants Obama To Bypass Congress On Coal
12 Jun 2013
Actor Robert Redford, the same man who made a film lionizing domestic terrorists earlier this year, has weighed in as an environmental activist, bloviating that he hopes President Barack Obama has the “courage” to unilaterally force coal-powered power plants to reduce their carbon emissions, bypassing Congress.
Redford made a video for the Natural Resources Defense Council in which he said:
Record setting heat and drought, rising sea levels and severe weather events like Hurricane Sandy: climate change is happening, fast. We’ve got to stop making the problem worse and that means reducing carbon pollution from its biggest source, coal-fired power plants. It’s harming our environment and our communities. Even so, Congress has refused to take steps that would protect us from climate change. The good news is that President Obama has pledged to act and he has the power to do it.
And just how should Obama force his will on the people, according to the Golden Septuagenarian?
