i think joe biden is surprising some of the skeptics who did not think he would lead on the issue of climate change or were skeptical he would show the sort of bold leadership necessary, but here we have the united states laying down the gauntlet for other countries, a commitment to lower carbon emissions by a factor of two within the next 10 years. it is doable and essential if we are to avoid the catastrophic warming of the planet where we will start to see some of the worst impacts of climate change. that is what we've got to do globally. the united states is setting an example for other countries to follow. judy:judy: let me read for you what "the new york times" is reporting what would be required to meet the president's goal of cutting emissions in half. more than half of all new cars and suvs would have to be powered by electricity, not gasoline. nearly all coal-flowered -- coal-fired power plants would need to be shut down forests would need to be expanded, and the number of wind turbines and solar panels would have to be quadrupled. michael: nothing that is worth doing is ea

yeah this is a call to action by joe biden the u.s. president but it's also recognizing that the united states plays a pivotal role in terms of leadership and so this is what this message was it had really 2 messages within it one for the international audience for world leaders that are gathered here at this summit it resolving to take action the united states saying it's leading by example making that announcement of cutting its own emissions up from the targets of the obama administration so this is the sort of 1st part of it and it is also to let people know that as we've heard from joe biden repeatedly america is back to the 4 years of donald trump and denials of climate science have come and gone but there's another message tucked in all of this too and that is for the domestic audience the fact is that if these lofty goals put forward by the us president are to be met it will mean a significant change of american patterns in terms of their energy use specifically when it comes to the type of cars that they drive because right no
