Joe Biden has released a climate-change proposal that calls the Green New Deal a “crucial framework” for dealing with climate challenges
WASHINGTON—Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden released a $1.7 trillion proposal over the next decade to fight climate change, outlining steps to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
The former vice president’s plan, released Tuesday ahead of campaign stops in New Hampshire, would leverage an additional $3.3 trillion in private investment and funding from state and local governments in the next 10 years to battle global warming, and it would include $400 billion to spur clean-energy research.
