"Will Climate Unify Clinton, Sanders Fans Against Trump?"

"Greens think they have a sure-fire way to bring Bernie Sanders supporters around to Hillary Clinton: Remind them of what Donald Trump says he'd do to the Paris climate deal.

Democrats and environmentalists have made a political weapon out of presumptive Republican nominee Trump’s threat to end the Paris climate deal.

The promise looks likely to linger in the general election, but it has a practical purpose right now, too: using Trump as a climate change boogeyman could serve to attract otherwise disillusioned Sanders supporters to her side."

Devin Henry reports for The Hill June 11, 2016.
