"Biden To Tout Climate Policies For Earth Day"

"The Biden administration says it plans to highlight several of its climate change accomplishments ahead of and on Earth Day this Friday.

On Tuesday, the administration is expected to provide an update on its efforts to tackle extremely powerful climate-warming gases called hydrofluorocarbons — which the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is now phasing down after a 2020 law required it to do so, senior officials told reporters Monday.

The administration will highlight its clean energy accomplishments on Wednesday.

The Department of Transportation is expected to make an announcement on Thursday related to the bipartisan infrastructure law and helping states cut transportation emissions. Biden is also expected to visit Portland, Ore., to discuss the bipartisan infrastructure law.

And on Friday, Biden will travel to Seattle, where he will “showcase how we are using mother nature” to help tackle climate change, an official said."
