BOSTON Armenia Tree Project welcomed the Biden administration’s renewed commitment to join the Paris Accords.
The Paris climate accord is a landmark international agreement signed in 2015 by 189 countries to limit global warming. Under the agreement, countries commit to decreasing greenhouse gas emissions every five years. The U.S. had initially joined the accord under the Obama administration, and had pledged to cut its emissions by 26 to 28 percent by 2025. The Trump administration had abandoned the agreement late last year.
In his campaign, President Biden set an ambitious goal of ensuring that the U.S. achieves net-zero emissions by 2050. The administration’s urgency to contribute in combating global climate change comes after record-breaking atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations seen in 2020.
