Foreign Policy

As President Biden convenes world leaders this week for Earth Day to galvanize climate action, how will governments and industries respond to new policies, pledges and commitments? How will the U.S. administration mobilize its “whole of government” approach to the environment domestically, and what sort of actions are required from governments around the globe to get on track with urgent climate targets?

Tune in with Foreign Policy for our inaugural Climate Summit to explore these and other important questions about viable strategies for reducing carbon emissions while meeting the world’s growing energy needs.
