Kamala Harris urged to flesh out climate plan amid warnings about Trump

As the US south-east struggles to rebuild after two deadly and climate-fueled hurricanes, some environmental advocates are demanding Kamala Harris flesh out a strong climate plan.

The Harris campaign did not respond to a request for comment.

Other Harris allies are sanguine about the absence of climate from her campaigning, pointing to her record as a prosecutor in taking on big oil and their expectation that she will push for aggressive climate action if she claims the White House.

But the issue is not only one of messaging, but also of substance, said Rees.
