(87,493 posts)Have you had a chance yet? It was an excellent assessment of where we stand and what we have to do about it.
The President had no problem what so ever in calling out those that were holding us back! Truly awesome!

(305,415 posts)so far there's a 10 minute clip..
1:45 P.M. EDT
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you! (Applause.) Thank you, Georgetown! Thank you so much. Everybody, please be seated. And my first announcement today is that you should all take off your jackets. (Laughter.) Im going to do the same. (Applause.) Its not that sexy, now. (Laughter.)
It is good to be back on campus, and it is a great privilege to speak from the steps of this historic hall that welcomed Presidents going back to George Washington.
I want to thank your president, President DeGioia, whos here today. (Applause.) I want to thank him for hosting us. I want to thank the many members of my Cabinet and my administration. I want to thank Leader Pelosi and the members of Congress who are here. We are very grateful for their support.
And I want to say thank you to the Hoyas in the house for having me back. (Applause.) It was important for me to speak directly to your generation, because the decisions that we make now and in the years ahead will have a profound impact on the world that all of you inherit.
On Christmas Eve, 1968, the astronauts of Apollo 8 did a live broadcast from lunar orbit. So Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, William Anders -- the first humans to orbit the moon - described what they saw, and they read Scripture from the Book of Genesis to the rest of us back here. And later that night, they took a photo that would change the way we see and think about our world.
The Rest..

I think I'll post in its own thread in the BOG, of course.

(53,661 posts)I think there's a thread in the BOG with a promo for organizing to get Congress to enact legislation for climate change. He's doing a good job of calling them out. Look forward to seeing this and rec'ing it!
