Tackle climate change

To the Times: The Delaware County Chapter of the Citizens Climate Lobby met with our elected member of congress, Pat Meehan, on August 21st, in his Springfield office. We thanked Congressman Meehan for his continued dialogue on this critical topic and for his support in defeating the Perry Amendment, which would have blocked our military from taking action on climate change.

At this meeting, my Haverford Township Commissioner, Steve D’Emilio, presented a township resolution to Mr. Meehan that stated that climate change is real, it is human caused, and we call on the U.S. Congress to take action.
