If implemented, President Joe Biden's New American Jobs Plan would rank not only as one of the biggest engines for creating good jobs (many of them in construction, which average about $30 an hour) but also as the nation’s most ambitious effort so far to curb greenhouse gas emissions β€” and put the country on a path to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

The plan covers a lot of ground, including $174 billion to boost electric vehicles and shift consumers away from gas-powered cars β€” funding half a million charging stations by 2030, along with incentives to buy electric vehicles and funds to retool factories and boost domestic supplies of energy-saving materials.
