On January 20, 2021, President Biden announced that the U.S. is rejoining the Paris Agreement an international agreement designed to avert catastrophic climate change. The central goal of the agreement is to hold global average temperatures to well below 2°C (3.6°F) above pre-industrial levels, and to pursue efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C (2.7°F).
