Biden announces new climate change programs, but no emergency declaration
President Joe Biden announced new executive steps to combat climate change on Wednesday, but fell short of issuing a climate emergency declaration as some Democrats had called for amid stalled negotiations over major environmental legislation in Washington.
“Since Congress is not acting as it should…this is an emergency and I will look at it that way,” Biden said. “As president I’ll use my executive powers to combat the climate crisis in the absence of executive action.”
The initiatives include providing $2.3 billion in funding for a program that helps communities prepare for disasters by expanding flood control and retrofitting buildings, as well as leveraging funding to help low-income families cover heating and cooling costs.
