Letter: Regarding Tom Osborne’s Dec. 6 Column

I enjoyed Tom Osborne’s Green Light Column in the Dec. 6 Indy, “Ms. Yury goes to Washington.” It’s a good example of how we can all contribute to fighting climate change, even though we may not be experts on the subject or well-practiced in political activism. We know that climate change is real, as we see its effects on glaciers and on flooding in coastal areas, but it may be difficult to know what to do. Getting our US Congress to support HR 763 (the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act) is a great step in the right direction. This is a bi-partisan effort to address a very serious problem. We need to call or write congressional representatives, Republican or Democrat, to urge them to support this bill. It also would be a good idea to ask our City Council to declare their support for this measure and to take other steps to declare their support for the fight for climate change action.
