Georgia Republican U.S. Sen. David Perdue says he realizes the climate is changing, but in a debate on Monday he stopped short of acknowledging that human activities are causing the changes.

Perdue also didn’t offer ways to address climate change, instead focusing on criticizing the proposal known as the Green New Deal.

“That is the greatest threat to Medicare and Social Security that we have in America today, is this outrageous spending plan the Democrats are trying to perpetrate in this election,” he said.
