The accord agreed at COP28 on Wednesday was hailed by US President Joe Biden as a “historic milestone”.
The US President stated that it is up to us all to create a future for our kids that is safer and more optimistic.
In a statement issued by the White House on Wednesday, Vice President Biden stated, “At COP28, world leaders reached another historic milestone – committing, for the first time, to transition away from the fossil fuels that jeopardise our planet and our people, agreeing to triple renewable energy globally by 2030, and more,” even though “there is still substantial work ahead of us to keep the 1.5 degree C goal within reach, today’s outcome puts us one significant step closer.”
As the existential peril of our time, the climate issue, according to Biden, is forcing us all to work together to create a safer and more optimistic future for our kids.
