Last week actually broke the record for the hottest global day several times. Our changing climate is having dire effects worldwide, especially in areas already experiencing poverty and hunger crises. I urge Rep. Chellie Pingree to cosponsor H.R. 598 — Earth Act to Stop Climate Pollution by 2030. This bill establishes requirements regarding renewable energy, regenerative agriculture, and more. So the next time we rejoice over abnormally hot summer days, remember its cause and allow that to be motivation to fight climate change while encouraging your representatives to join. ~ Mary Psyhogeos, Cumberland
