Biden in South Carolina

“While everyone is feeling the effects of climate change, in the Lowcountry you’re on the frontlines. It’s impacting everything from your health to your local economy to your overall quality of life. That’s why my plan invests $1.7 trillion over 10 years to move our country to a 100 percent clean-energy economy with net-zero emissions by 2050. My plan creates more than 10 million good-paying jobs and holds polluters directly accountable for the harm they’ve done. On day one of my presidency, I’ll ban new offshore drilling and I’ll immediately rejoin the Paris Agreement, restoring American leadership and pushing other nations to do more.”
