Reaching the Summit: Biden Recommits U.S. to Climate Action

The Global Current

U.S. President Joe Biden, in a summit of 40 nations, broke from his predecessor and affirmed the nation's commitment to combatting climate change. The summit was one of the first major American effort to address global climate change since the president took office, and many welcomed it as a first step toward further U.S. engagement. The Biden administration had previously re-joined the Paris Climate Accord and laid out domestic policies to curb emissions.
