A group of local and retired politicians who favor quick passage of climate-change legislation is launching a public dialogue in Colorado and other states this week, warning that climate change may threaten national security, The Denver Post reports.
Former U.S. Sens. John Warner and Gary Hart, joined by Gov. Bill Ritter’s climate-change coordinator, Alice Madden, are to lead a public forum today at 10 a.m. in the University of Colorado Denver’s Tivoli multicultural student lounge.
