Thread: As a hunter and outdoorsman I 1) believe climate change is real and 2) believe we have a responsibility to act on it. I also know the solutions offered by the left are purposely bombastic, and most have very little chance of coming to fruition.

By ignoring the issue altogether, conservatives... who include many conservationists... have allowed the left to conflate a real problem: climate change with an ideology: socialism. If we want to win anything, this is a place to focus efforts

The keystone pipeline is a great example. We’ve allowed an “either/or” position from the left to pressure dem politicians into making decisions that hurt blue collar Americans because they feel they need to pass some church of climate purity test. All the while we sit silent

Using the random outlier scientist who doubts methods of measuring climate change to prop up our idle hands. We can take care of this planet through private industry innovation without betraying our fundamental beliefs. As conservatives, choosing the less comfortable path

For the long term benefit is very much a part of our brand. We have to reevaluate the messaging we’re sending young voters and offer conservative based ideas to the argument or we will get left in the dust at the ballot box on this issue.
