Washington, April 24 (TIWN) US President Joe Biden will pledge on Thursday to cut US greenhouse gas emissions by half by the end of the decade compared to 2005 levels, officials said.
President Joe Biden has opened a global climate summit with a pledge to cut at least in half the climate-wrecking coal and petroleum fumes that the United States pumps out, a commitment he hopes will spur China and other big polluters to speed up efforts of their own. The commitment – to cut US fossil fuel emissions up to 52 percent in less than 10 years – will come at the launch of the virtual climate summit for 40 world leaders on Thursday.
