If you're talking about big global problems, problems that require cooperation from countries

all around the world, the coronavirus pandemic is nothing compared to climate change.

There will be no vaccine, magical shot for climate change, and it's going to have a more

profound impact on the world at large.

If you can imagine that, then what we're going through today.

Steven Xu has a Nobel Prize in Physics, he was also Secretary of Energy in President

Obama's Administration.

He spoke to NPR this week about the incoming Biden Administration's ambitious climate

goals.

Biden has pledged to rejoin America in the Paris Climate Agreement, the global carbon

reduction plan President Trump backed out of, and he's talked about making America effectively

carbon neutral in just 30 years.

And put our nation on the road to net zero emissions by no later than 2050.

Steven Xu says many airlines, car companies, oil and gas companies are already moving in

the direction of clean energy.

The question for the Biden Administration is how to make that happen faster.

You have to demonstrate that this change is going to be good for not only the health

but the economy and everything else.

Hopefully the American public will have no trouble trying to understand that when it comes

to your own, your family, your children's health, it's worthwhile.

Consider this, the Biden Administration doesn't just have to convince the American public

that fighting climate change is worthwhile.
