As a former astronaut, Mark Kelly has witnessed the deforestation of the Amazon from space and knows firsthand what climate change can do to the planet. Kelly also recognizes that Arizona is at the center of the climate crisis — with the state at risk of increased heat and drought that disproportionately impact low-wealth and communities of color.
But Kelly also understands that there is a great opportunity for Arizona to lead in the transition to a clean energy economy that creates good-paying jobs and safer, healthier communities. In the Senate, he will fight for meaningful limits on harmful carbon pollution.
