On this edition of Your Call One Planet Series, we’re discussing the role of environmental voters in the midterm elections.
According to the Environmental Voter Project, 11.2 million environmentalists did not vote in the 2024 presidential election. What's being done to mobilize pro-climate voters? Where do candidates stand on climate? How will the midterms shape climate policy? And why isn't the climate crisis getting more attention in midterm media coverage?
