COP 26 and Climate Change: What is the extent of US President Biden's |
North America Report,
Biden wants to play a leading role in the environment,
When US President Joe Biden took to the stage in Glasgow for his speech, he made sure that he would make the world believe one thing.
The same thing he said at the G20 press conference in Rome on Sunday night: US leadership in the fight against climate change
A bill to allocate a whopping 5 555 billion to protect the environment is under consideration in the US Congress.
The US President also hinted at this in his speech.
Never before in the history of the United States has a government allocated so much money to reduce global warming. The money will be used to encourage projects to obtain energy from transparent sources.
But the bill has not yet been passed, and it is uncertain whether President Biden will receive the support Congress needs to pass it.
A key provision in the proposed law on discouraging energy-producing companies that generate energy from land-based sources and encouraging companies that generate energy from non-conventional sources that Biden's own Democrat Senator Joe Manchin, who belongs to the party, has opposed. Senator Joe Manchin represents West Virginia, a region known for its coal production.
The impediment to progress on the bill was extremely troubling for the presidency, which wanted it passed before President Biden arrived in Rome to attend the G20 summit.

Rising oil prices have become a headache for the US president |
That's why President Biden has no advantage over other presidents and leaders.
How morally weighty is his statement, "Look what I would do if I had the required votes."
One problem is rising oil prices, which could pose a problem for the US president's eco-friendliness.
While Biden is trying to lead the world on the environmental issue, he is trying to persuade the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to increase its production so that it can continue to supply oil to American consumers at reasonable prices.
Rising oil prices have become a headache for the US president
At the moment, consumers are very excited because they have to buy a gallon of oil for three dollars.
President Biden should take these customers on a tour of London's petrol pumps so that American citizens can realize how lucky they are.
The United States is a country where people are obsessed with the weather because of hurricanes, hurricanes, hurricanes and scorching summer waves and other natural disasters.
But people are less concerned about the environment, despite the fact that the country has been hit by the worst natural disasters in recent years, with temperatures rising sharply, wildfires, hurricanes and freezing in areas such as Texas. Includes freezing winters.
But at this stage, if we look elsewhere. The tragedy of President Biden is somehow facing Rome and other world leaders who have since gathered in Glasgow.
There are elected members, there are national assemblies and there are elected houses in which those who sit often disagree with their prime ministers and presidents and do not support them on many issues as expected.
Then there are the people who punish the elected members by not voting for those who support measures that endanger their jobs or force them to pay higher oil prices.
From the memoir that emerged from the G20 summit, it can be inferred that everyone understands the need to keep the environmental limit at 1.5 degrees by 2050.
It is difficult to find in this memory the concrete steps that should be taken forCOP 26 and Climate Change
this great cause.
At the Glasgow conference, world leaders may not behave like politicians and take all the steps that environmental activists are calling for.
But in any case, they will have in mind how much it will be possible for them to convince their people of these steps and whether it will not be a problem for their country and whether taking these steps will not be to their personal detriment. Will be doing?
I saw a scene of real American power as President Biden's 85-car convoy passed in front of me on the way to St. Peter's Square in Rome.
The United States is still the most powerful country in the world and President Biden is the most powerful president in the world.
But he could not force his own party's senator from Virginia. All the leaders in Glasgow over the next two weeks will be much weaker than they are.
