Climate change absent from midterm campaigns, commentator argues

Original: Climate change is silent in midterms, unless we demand more | Opinion

An opinion piece in the Des Moines Register argues that climate change has gone largely unmentioned in the US midterm elections, and says the issue will stay marginal unless voters explicitly demand that candidates address it. The author calls on the public to press politicians on climate policy during campaigns, framing voter pressure as the key to breaking the silence.

Why now: Midterm election coverage is dominating US politics and many notice climate is missing from debate.
