Check out this great piece from CE4B friends in St. Louis!

CE4B is working to elect Vice President Joe Biden because he understands the disproportionate impact climate change and pollution have on Black communities and other minority communities, and how a clean energy economy will not only reduce air pollution but also create good jobs.

“Biden’s new plan, which carries a price tag of $2 trillion, would eliminate carbon emissions from the electric sector by 2035, impose stricter gas mileage standards, fund investments to weatherize millions of homes and commercial buildings, and upgrade the nation’s transportation system.”
https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2020/07/30/biden-calls-100-percent-clean-electricity-by-2035-heres-how-far-we-have-go/?arc404=tru

Biden calls for 100 percent clean electricity by 2035. Here’s how far we have to go. The Democratic presumptive presidential nominee has called for phasing fossil fuels out of America's power sector by 2035. Some states are making headway, but it would take a massive effort for the entire country to meet that target.

A legendary civil rights leader, John Lewis was also an environmental champion and advocate for environmental justice. We must commit to his legacy by building a more just and clean future for all.

Tonight! Join for a discussion on environmental justice feat. Representative Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ-3), Tamara Toles O’Laughlin of 350 Action and Christy Goldfuss from the Center for American Progress leading the discussion. RSVP: https://www.givegreen.com/BBIDENEVT2007V3

"Biden's proposal has earned high praise from climate scientists and environmental advocates, who say it would put the U.S. on a challenging but achievable path to building a clean energy economy and would help restore the country's reputation on the global stage."

Biden's proposals also build on the platforms of several of his former primary opponents, particularly Washington Gov. Jay Inslee and Sen. Elizabeth Warren
