At a Senate hearing on climate change, 23-year-old skier Gus Schumacher, introduced as an 'expert witness' by Democrats, faced a tough time against Republican John Kennedy.
Despite struggling to answer questions and facing criticism, Schumacher remained composed. The Democratic Party even apologized to him for Kennedy's aggressive questioning.
Schumacher, an Olympic hopeful, spoke about the impact of climate change on winter sports, emphasizing the need for systemic change. Despite the challenges, he expressed determination to continue advocating for climate change awareness, supported by his family and friends.
