1:46Now PlayingJoe Biden focused his battle against President Donald Trump on the wildfire-scorched West Coast Monday, declaring the fires and recent extreme weather underscore an urgent need to address climate change.
Biden lashed at Trump, saying “if you give a climate denier four more years in the White House, why would we be surprised that we have more America ablaze?”
The disaster and new national attention on climate change could be creating another difficult moment for a president facing multiple challenges, including the coronavirus pandemic, joblessness and social unrest.
Trump has repeatedly discounted the impact of climate change, walked away from a major international climate agreement and proudly rolled back environmental regulations.
Biden, who gave his climate speech in Delaware on Monday, released a $2 trillion plan in July to boost investment in clean energy and stop all climate-damaging emissions from U.S. power plants by 2035.
