President Joe Biden has made fighting climate change a core part of his agenda
“There is disappointment. There is anger. There is frustration," said Lori Lodes, the executive director of Climate Power, an environmental advocacy group aligned with the administration.
When it comes to the 2024 election, “I don’t really think there’s a choice," Lodes said."If you care about the climate, there’s not a choice.” “The president kept his word where he can by law,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Thursday, adding that Biden “has done more on climate change than any other president in history.” Environmental groups already have sued in a renewed effort to block Willow.
While the White House said the legal issues largely drove the Willow decision, there were other factors at work.
