Biden began his speech with the fires that are now raging in the western United States, about the pandemic's consequences for public health and the economy, about the discrimination that has caused the country's black population to demonstrate - he refers to this as "the interconnected crises of our time".
- It requires action, not denial.
It requires leadership, not guilt.
It requires a president to live up to the duty of office, one who cares - cares about everyone.
Someone who protects us from every attack, without exception.
"Hurricanes do not choose"
"Because this is how it is: Hurricanes do not choose between red and blue states, forest fires do not jump over cities that have voted in a certain way," Biden said, adding that the answer to climate change must be uniform and based on science.
He then fell out angrily with Trump.
"Climate Assassination Burner"
- If you give a climate murder burner four more years in the White House, why would anyone be surprised if more of America is on fire?
If you give a climate denier four more years in the White House, why would anyone be surprised when more of America is under water?
- We need a president who respects science, who understands that the damage of climate change is already here and if we do not take action urgently, it will soon be more catastrophic.
