Biden’s Climate Plan: We’ll Break it Down for You

In March, President Joe Biden called on Congress to pass the “American Jobs Plan.” The plan would achieve 100% clean electricity nationwide by 2035. It would invest $100 billion to modernize the grid, $400 billion in incentives for wind and solar and other renewables, $222 billion for electric vehicle research and charging stations, $10 billion in a “Climate Crisis Corps,” and more. It also calls for equity and justice at every step, with investments in underserved communities like removing lead pipes from every single community in America.

Join our webinar to learn more about President Biden’s climate plan! Hear firsthand why the plan is a fantastic first step towards ending the climate crisis. On the webinar, you’ll learn how we can make the plan better and, most importantly, what we need to do to get it passed by Congress THIS YEAR.

Speakers:

  • Leah Stokes of Evergreen Action
  • Ben Beachy of Sierra Club
  • Andres Jimenez of Green 2.0
