GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham says he doesn't 'want to be lectured' on what lawmakers should do to 'destroy' the US economy over climate change

The United States and Europe are in the middle of a heat wave, and Democratic politicians and climate activists are frustrated by GOP indifference.

The rejection of the climate bill by West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin has angered many members of the Democratic Party.

According to The New York Times, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina is one of many GOP lawmakers who don't want bold climate action.

He told the newspaper that he didn't want to be lectured about what to do to destroy the economy.

Several Republicans have recently admitted that some industries have contributed to the production of greenhouse gases that cause higher temperatures.

Republicans have not been involved in working with Democrats on climate legislation.

Despite the Biden administration's desire to shift to wind and other low-carbon energy sources as well as the production of more electric vehicles, most Republicans continue to push for more domestic drilling.

The Democratic Party has made climate change a religion and their solutions are "drastic," according to Graham.

Graham doesn't agree with President Biden's desire to cut emissions in half by the year 2030.

The senator wants the world to be involved, not just us.
