The Obama administration has taken important steps to address climate change and other environmental threats during her tenure. She has led a number of those efforts, including elevating the importance of climate-smart strategies to prepare for the impacts of climate change. We thank her for her work preserving the natural systems on which all life depends, and for being a tireless voice for the environment inside the White House.”
