The US will set a 2035 emissions target under the Paris Agreement next year. That will create additional investment, policy incentives, and urgency to get to zero emissions faster. Kids & vulnerable folks will breathe healthier air & not get sick because of air pollution. All of that is at risk.
And BY THE WAY, the next Administration will need to set emissions reductions commitments under the Paris Agreement for 2035. Biden already has a 50-52% reduction target by 2030 & a net-zero by 2050 target. But the 2035 target sets the trajectory. Pull out of Paris & that goes away & dooms net-zero.
