A growing climate protest group that opposes all fossil fuel development was given a private meeting with John Podesta, President Biden's top clean energy adviser, last month.
"Thank you for taking the time to meet with us today," Climate Defiance wrote to Podesta in the letter. "We appreciate your willingness to heed our deeply-held concerns. Echoing the voices of millions of Americans, we write to you in the eleventh hour of the greatest threat that humanity has ever faced: planetary and societal collapse due to the continued burning of fossil fuels." Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"We urge you to wield your utmost authority to implement a swift end to any federal support for new fossil fuel infrastructure. Both the urgency of this action and the severe consequences of further delay cannot be overstated," it continued. "Climate Defiance recognizes your commitment to climate action and commends you on your vital work developing and implementing the Inflation Reduction Act."
