In pursuing historic climate change agenda, Biden may find surprising ally Adam Edelman December 26, 2020, 3:00 AM President-elect Joe Biden has made no secret that tackling climate change will be one of his top priorities. But to enact his platform to reduce global warming he may find an unexpected ally: Republicans. Biden campaigned on the most ambitious climate agenda in history: It included plans for pioneering green energy and infrastructure projects and proposals to address environmental racism.

Stephen Webber column: Could city planning be a solution to fighting climate change?

By Stephen Webber Most Virginians believe that a top-down government approach is the only way to address climate change; however, this notion overlooks the simple alterations at a local level that can have large impacts on reducing the effects of climate change. Virginia is split between North and South — commonly referred to as NOVA and SOVA — large cities and rural areas, and red counties and blue counties, but across the board suffers from the same issue preventing climate action: city planning. In large metro areas like Richmond and the Capital Beltway, life is built around access to transportation. Metro stops are the lifeblood for anyone who lives near Washington, D.C., but access often is overlooked to the net detriment of those on the lower portion of the city’s economic spectrum.
