The Right Climate Plan for America
Climate change shouldn't be politicized or divide us. When the right policies protect our economy and jobs as well as our environment,
America wins in every way.
Three dozen reasons.
Conservative principles, the right solutions
Since January, Republicans in the 117th Congress have introduced nearly three dozen bills to unleash environmental innovation, clean energy infrastructure and natural conservation solutions.
Unlike expensive, haphazard proposals like the Green New Deal, this legislation will have an immediate and lasting impact on Earth's changing climate without sacrificing American jobs or our competitiveness.
Three simple truths.
Nobody wants to destroy the environment. We all want to conserve nature's gifts for generations to come.
​
But expensive government schemes aren't the answer. The best way is simple:
​
Cut energy prices, not energy choices
​
Reduce our emissions, not our economy
​
Export American innovation, not American jobs
​
We are the most innovative country in the world. Putting the brakes on that powerful engine for good will only hurt American families and make global emissions worse in the long run.
​
Let's protect America as we protect the environment. Let's bring common sense back to the climate conversation. It's time for the right climate solutions that work for all of us.
A Better Way to a Sustainable Future
Rep. McCarthy's summit tackles environmental challenges from a conservative point of view. Blog posts, videos, and live discussions each day highlight Republican solutions that get climate right, in areas like innovation, clean energy infrastructure, and natural solutions for conservation.
