Biden s Climate-Focused Infrastructure Plan Geared To Curb U S Carbon Emissions

Biden s Climate-Focused Infrastructure Plan Geared To Curb Carbon Emissions, Including in Pa

Evan Vucci / AP Environmental groups said climate provisions in President Joe Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan would ease the transition to clean energy in Pennsylvania. The state’s oil and gas industry did not see much it liked in the plan.  The plan, which Biden unveiled Wednesday in Pittsburgh, includes money for projects to reduce greenhouse gases in transportation, electricity and housing. It includes billions of dollars to fund clean energy research and development, electrify cars and trucks, and modernize the electric grid to better use renewable energy.  “I’m convinced that if we act now, in 50 years people are going to look back and say this is the moment when America won the future,” Biden said.

And scientists and economists agree that, if we don’t quickly reduce the greenhouse gas pollution from fossil fuels like coal and gas that contribute to warming the planet, these impacts will only grow more costly and dangerous. Yet parts of western Pennsylvania, like many regions of the United States, rely on coal and gas production to support the local economy. Through its Here and Real project, the MIT Environmental Solutions Initiative (ESI) is investigating solutions that reduce carbon pollution and are economically just for communities that are reliant on fossil fuel production.
