President Biden’s big climate call: the US 2030 target
By Tim Gore
The US is back in the Paris International Climate Agreement. Now the big question is what 2030 emission reduction target President Biden will bring to the table ahead of COP26 in Glasgow. His election campaign pledge to target net zero emissions by 2050 is encouraging, but now the world wants to know about US near-term action.
... Most of the world’s major emitters have yet to pledge to significantly increase their near-term cuts. The US offer is likely to set the bar for the next round of offers. This one number will go a long way to determining whether governments keep the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global heating to 1.5C alive.
