as cop28 concludes, chairman carper highlights cutting landfill methane emissions as opportunity for biden administration

As COP28 concluded, Senate Environment and Public Works Chairman Tom Carper issued a public statement that noted landfill methane emissions as an opportunity for the Biden Administration to act on. His statement said in part:

“Coming out of COP28, my top priority remains overseeing the effective implementation of our recent climate and clean energy wins. I also hope to build on our successes by advancing bipartisan legislation to strengthen our nation’s nuclear industry, confirming nominees who share our goals, and much more. In the meantime, I will continue to work with the Biden Administration on identifying opportunities to further our nation’s climate agenda, including cutting methane emissions from landfills. The climate crisis is a challenge that should unite us all, and I remain optimistic about the opportunity to make progress over the next year.”
