The President\u2019s Plan pledged to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cut carbon pollution in the United States by putting in place tough carbon pollution standards for new and existing power plants, accelerating investments in renewable energy, energy efficiency and innovative technologies, reducing emissions of highly potent greenhouse gases such as methane and HFCs, and putting in place fuel-saving standards for medium and heavy-duty trucks;<\/li>\n<li>Work with local communities and vulnerable sectors of the economy to prepare for climate impacts that can no longer be avoided; and<\/li>\n<li>Couple action at home with leadership internationally to forge a truly global solution to this global challenge. (Read more about the international aspects of the plan on our<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/climatetalks\/2013\/06\/25\/what-president-obamas-climate-action-plan-means-for-international-efforts-on-climate-change\/\">Climate Talks blog<\/a>.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The President\u2019s decision to focus his administration on addressing the serious problem of methane\u2019s contribution to climate change is an additional, welcome part of his announcement.<\/p>\n<p>He is in step with most Americans, who have moved past the old debates about climate change and are now dealing with the impacts. Reducing carbon pollution will help drought-stricken farmers in the Midwest, coastal residents from Florida to Connecticut rebuilding after storms, communities ravaged by wildfire in the West, children suffering from asthma, and taxpayers everywhere who have to foot the bill for the impacts of climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Most Americans would be shocked to know that there are no current limits on carbon pollution from power plants. By setting the first standards in history for carbon pollution from power plants in the United States \u2013 which produce 2 billion tons of this pollution each year, or about 40% of the nation\u2019s total \u2013 the President will help\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/climate\/smart-grid-overview\">modernize our power system<\/a>, ensuring that our electricity is reliable, affordable, healthy and clean. He can do so in a way that can give industry the flexibility it needs to make cost-effective investments in clean energy technologies.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m seeing plenty of reasons for hope these days. California recently put in place nearly\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/climate\/AB32\">economy-wide limits<\/a>\u00a0on carbon pollution \u2013 in the ninth largest economy in the world. Two weeks ago, the United States and China agreed to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/the-press-office\/2013\/06\/08\/united-states-and-china-agree-work-together-phase-down-hfcs\">work together<\/a>\u00a0to reduce powerful greenhouse gases known as HFCs. And last week in the city of Shenzhen, the Chinese launched the first of seven emissions trading\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/2013-04-04\/shenzhen-is-first-in-china-with-june-start-for-emissions-trading.html\">pilot programs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But U.S. leadership is needed to help build on this progress and secure the reductions in carbon pollution scientists tell us we need at home and around the world. And the President today showed leadership, aligning common sense action with a vision of the future that will create a stronger America for our children and grandchildren.<\/p>\n<p>We expect Members of Congress to strongly support the President. We know the usual naysayers will soon be claiming that we can\u2019t afford to deal with this problem. The truth is we can\u2019t afford not to. Those who oppose the President\u2019s actions today apparently want no limits at all on carbon pollution. That\u2019s a highly irresponsible position in the face of a scientifically established threat. In fact, failure to act now will only saddle our children\u2019s generation with huge additional costs. Those who say they are concerned about the burden of fiscal deficits on coming generations should also worry about the enormous, and growing, costs of climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the President, the days of silence and inaction on climate are over. This plan could become an important part of his legacy.<\/p>\n<p>We still have a long way to go. Now it\u2019s up to all of us to join with the President in confronting the defining challenge of our time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(This post first appeared on Tuesday, June 25th on\u00a0EDF Voices) Today President Obama took an important step toward meeting the promise of his inaugural address to \u201crespond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations.\u201d In a\u00a0Climate Action Plan\u00a0announced at Georgetown University, the &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[202,20,44],"tags":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-4139","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-greenhouse-gas-emissions","category-news","category-policy"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
