4. Stephanie Young:

   We spent all 2021 really fighting for federal voting rights legislation. Over 20,000 people took( advocacy) action with us( last year), and we knew going throughout this year, and seeing that Congress was not acting, and that the filibuster was getting in the way, we realized that we really had to take matters into our own hands, we know at the end of the day, we're not going to be able to out-organize when it comes to fixing our voting system and modernizing it, and replacing the federal legislation, and that's why it's twofold.

5. Jason Furtado:

   We know from observations that the Arctic Amplification region is warming at a much faster rate than other parts of the globe( we call Arctic Amplification), the impact of Arctic Amplification is twofold. First, since Arctic Amplification is getting much warmer, when cold air outbreaks occur in North America and Europe/Asia, they aren't as cold as they were decades ago. The second effect( though currently debated in the science community) is that a warmer Arctic Amplification is also making the stratospheric polar vortex weaker on the average.
