Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) speaks to a Climate One audience about why clean energy makes sense for the U.S. and the obstacle of special interest groups resisting change. "The real answer isn't to pull more carbon out of the ground," says Merkley. "We need to have discussions across this country about where we're headed and why we need to change the course we're on...Ultimately it's an informed citizenry that is going to create push back."
