According to him, “Today, here in Florida it’s time to do what is right. It’s time to address climate change by changing Tallahassee’s climate of denial. It’s time to restore power back to the local level.”

Levine promised to do the right things for Florida

“It’s long past time to say we’ve had enough of the political bickering and posturing. Enough of the calculated words of hate, enough of those who would tear us down and tear us apart just to score a political point. They’ve had their turn. Today belongs to us,” said Levine.

He then declared, “Today, before friends and family and inspired by the heroism of those who dream big and achieve big, I am announcing my candidacy for governor of the State of Florida.”
Levine promised to make Florida an international leader not just in climate change but also in solar and renewable energy. “After all, we are the sunshine state,” he said.
