Washington, D.C. – Since President Biden was sworn into office, he’s made climate and clean energy a top priority, from recommitting the U.S. to the Paris Agreement on Day 1 to passing his clean energy plan and finalizing carbon pollution standards that hold polluters accountable. President Biden has done more to protect, restore, and secure our health and environment than any president in U.S. history, and the proof is in the numbers. According to a new analysis from Climate Power and 20 other climate groups, including the youth-led Sunrise Movement, President Biden has taken more than 320 environmental actions to address climate change.
