Former Vice President Joe Biden unveiled a $1.7-trillion, 10-year plan to combat climate change.
Former Vice President Joe Biden, seen here at a recent campaign rally in Philadelphia, has released a keenly awaited plan to combat climate change.
Also entering the climate change debate Tuesday was Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, who called for spending $2 trillion over 10 years on research and development and other federal spending to speed the transition to a clean-energy economy. in which he declared that “we have got to make it clear that when the future of the planet is at stake, there is no ‘middle ground.’”
Instead, the plan calls more broadly for an “enforcement mechanism” to be passed by Congress and enacted by 2025. It would be based on the principle that “polluters must bear the full cost of the carbon pollution they are emitting,” according to the campaign.
