Congratulations to the European Union for reaching agreement to cut methane from fossil energy.

Reducing methane is essential to keep 1.5C in reach -and the deepest reductions must come from fossil fuels. ec.europa.eu/commission/pre…

The Biden administration announces U.S./PRC actions and cooperation in support of efforts to keep a 1.5 degree C on temperature rise within reach, including by meaningfully cutting power sector emissions in the 2020s, addressing all greenhouse gases in Paris Agreement NDCs, and…

The new National Climate Assessment shows the important progress we've made reducing U.S. emissions. It also underscores the need to go further and faster in reducing global emissions, so we can keep 1.5 degrees within reach.

I appreciated the opportunity to sit down with Prime Minister leehsienloong. We discussed how the US and Singapore can work together to tackle the climate crisis and find common ground in the clean energy transition.

I was thrilled to address the Bloomberg New Economy Forum #BNEF in Singapore to lay out my thoughts for #COP28 , which is just three weeks away. #COP28 is our chance to write a future filled with choices that make life cleaner, healthier, fairer, and safer.

We had comprehensive and constructive discussions with the PRC over five days, and we reached common ground on a number of issues that we expect will prove productive in these critical weeks ahead of #COP28 .

This week, I’m in Abu Dhabi as head of the U.S. delegation to #PreCOP , where we’re meeting with partners from across the globe to set the stage for ambitious and productive outcomes at #COP28 in Dubai.

The clean energy transition is critical, but we can't keep 1.5 degrees within reach without slashing methane from fossil fuels now.

As President Biden has made clear, the US unequivocally condemns the unspeakable acts of hate and terrorism by Hamas killers, and it’s important that Secretary Antony Blinken is headed to Israel to personally reaffirm our friendship and support at this difficult moment.

I share condolences for all…

Our discussions with Pacific Island, NGO, and philanthropic partners during the U.S.-Pacific Islands Forum Summit last week underscored that we need all hands on deck to keep 1.5C within reach, protect our ocean, and accelerate adaptation efforts that support communities in…

Powerful words of Laudate Deum from Pope Francis about a planet 'nearing the breaking point;' diplomacy that 'must be part of the solution;” and hope that COP28 marks 'a change of direction' not just' pasting and papering over cracks.' His Holiness should be heard by all when he…

In order to avoid the worst impacts of the climate crisis, the world must work urgently to slash methane emissions from the energy sector by the end of this decisive decade.

I’m urging leaders to raise ambition and take additional action to meet this moment.

This week, the US announced investments to help safeguard Pacific Island communities from climate impacts, including:
🚨$6M to strengthen early warning systems NOAA
👷‍♀️$2M for Local2030 Islands Network to advance island-led sustainable development

When I ran for president, I called for a modern-day Climate Corps to put a new generation of Americans to work conserving and restoring our lands and waters, and addressing climate change.

We just made good on that promise.
