US senator's solution to climate change: Get married and have some kids
Mike Lee on Tuesday called babies and families the solution to climate change in response to a Democratic plan to overhaul the economy through the Green New Deal proposal.
The Republican made the suggestion while blasting the Green New Deal on the Senate floor. Lee employed poster-board sized pictures of the superhero Aquaman and former President Ronald Reagan riding a velociraptor so he could "consider the Green New Deal with the seriousness it deserves."
After lambasting the policy as "the legislative equivalent of Austin Powers' Dr. Evil demanding 'sharks with frickin' lasers on their heads,'" Lee offered his own solution.
"The solution to climate change is not this un-serious resolution that we're considering this week in the Senate, but rather the serious business of human flourishing," Lee said. "The solution to so many of our problems, at all times and in all places, is to fall in love, get married and have some kids."
Lee argued that, because climate change is an engineering challenge, it will be best solved through American families and increasing the US population. "Problems of human imagination are not solved by more laws, they're solved by more humans," he said. "More people mean bigger markets for more innovation. More babies mean forward-looking adults, the sort we need to tackle long-term, large-scale problems."
Lee is currently working on legislation to support families by providing paid parental leave, his press secretary, Conn Carroll, told CNN.
