The Biden administration has admitted to killing jobs in the fossil fuel industries, but insists that workers can find livelihoods in other, growing sectors, such as solar panels.
John Kerry, the U.S. special presidential envoy for climate, said on Wednesday that President Joe Biden is doing “what needs to be done” to combat climate change in cracking down on the coal and oil and gas industries. He said that the “crisis” of climate change underscored the need for investment in clean energy sectors, and that workers in fossil fuel industries have been “fed a false narrative” about the future of their industries.
