President Biden To Speak At Climate Week NYC

President Biden addresses White House Climate Initiative in Washington

President Joe Biden is set to address Climate Week NYC on Tuesday, showcasing his administration's extensive climate agenda and emphasizing the contrast between Democratic initiatives and Republican opposition to his 2022 climate law. The White House official revealed that Biden will participate in the Bloomberg Global Business forum, where he will discuss efforts to reduce planet-warming pollution in the US, promote clean energy jobs, and provide energy tax subsidies to save Americans money.

The official stated, 'The President will highlight how his Administration has delivered on the most ambitious climate agenda ever and restored America's climate leadership around the world.' Vice President Kamala Harris is not scheduled to appear at the event, which coincides with the United Nations General Assembly.

During his appearance, Biden will underscore the differences between Democrats and Republicans on energy and climate issues, noting that Republicans unanimously opposed his climate bill. Despite this opposition, recent reports indicate that a significant portion of the investments from the climate bill have benefited Republican congressional districts, leading to job creation and economic growth.

Focus on showcasing administration's climate agenda achievements.

Furthermore, Treasury Department data shows that millions of US households have taken advantage of the climate law by claiming tax credits to support the adoption of clean energy technologies such as solar panels, home batteries, and heat pumps.

Throughout his tenure, Biden has prioritized climate action, signing new clean energy tax credits and federal grants into law, while implementing regulations to reduce pollution from various sectors. He will be accompanied by key administration officials at Climate Week NYC, including national climate adviser Ali Zaidi, Energy Sec. Jennifer Granholm, and EPA administrator Michael Regan.

The administration is expected to make announcements next week focusing on enhancing climate resilience in the US and expanding opportunities for young people to secure jobs in the climate and clean energy sectors.
