Biden aims to quantify the value of ecosystems in government rules
The White House unveiled new guidance on Tuesday directing federal agencies to fully account for how their decisions impact the ecosystems the public depends on. It’s one of several efforts the Biden administration has underway to better assess the environmental benefits throughout the rulemaking process. POLITICO’s E&E News reporter Jean Chemnick breaks down the impact of the new guidance. Plus, a new analysis from BloombergNEF found that the Inflation Reduction Act’s clean energy incentives won't come close to keeping the United States on track with the climate goals under the Paris agreement.
