Mr. Biden is set to formally make the announcement at the start of the summit, using Earth Day to proclaim America’s return to a position of global leadership on climate change and to urge other countries to make equally steep cuts.
The new target aims to see U.S. emissions drop 50 percent to 52 percent below 2005 levels by 2030, White House officials said.
Do something positive.
