Presidential nominee Joe Biden has outlined an extensive and comprehensive plan for clean energy in the United States. The plan details how new infrastructure, energy-efficient practices and technologies, and investments in research and development will help make the country the world’s leader in clean energy. Some of the ideas outlined include the construction of 1.5 million affordable and energy-efficient houses, rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, accelerating the adoption of zero-emission vehicles, and ensuring environmental justice by providing clean water and reducing the leakage of toxic chemicals in communities.
With the ever-increasing challenges of climate change and depletion of the earth’s natural resources, this is a pivotal moment to focus on developing sustainable technologies and optimizing our energy use.

"Here are 9 key elements of Joe Biden’s plan for a Clean Energy Revolution and Environmental Justice:
1) Take executive action on Day 1 to not just reverse all of the damage Trump has done, but go further and faster. Day 1 of the Biden Administration is going to be very busy! To immediately make progress on his climate agenda, Biden will take actions including requiring aggressive methane pollution limits for new and existing oil and gas operations; developing rigorous new fuel economy standards aimed at ensuring 100% of new sales for light- and medium-duty vehicles will be zero emissions and annual improvements for heavy duty vehicles; protecting America’s natural treasures by permanently protecting the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and other areas impacted by President Trump’s attack on federal lands and waters; and banning new oil and gas leasing on public lands and waters.
2) Work with Congress to enact in 2021, President Biden’s first year in office, legislation that, by the end of his first term, puts us on an irreversible path to achieve economy-wide net-zero emissions no later than 2050. The legislation must require polluters to bear the full cost of the carbon pollution they are emitting.
3) Rally the world to urgent and additional action. We know we cannot solve this emergency on our own: the United States accounts for only 15% of global emissions. On Day 1, Biden will rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement. But we must go further. In his first 100 days in office, Biden will convene a climate world summit to directly engage the leaders of the major greenhouse gas-emitting nations of the world to persuade them to join the United States in making more ambitious national pledges, above and beyond the commitments they have already made. Biden will not allow other nations, including China, to game the system by becoming destination economies for polluters, undermining our climate efforts and exploiting American workers and businesses."
