"Where Biden And Sanders Diverge On Climate Change"

"WASHINGTON - Democratic White House hopefuls Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders believe climate change is an existential threat, that the United States should immediately rejoin global climate talks, and that fossil fuel workers need help adjusting to a cleaner energy economy.

The similarities end there.

Sanders wants to end fossil fuel use completely in power and transport in less than 10 years. Biden, meanwhile, sees traditional power sources like natural gas still having a role to play, with the help of technology to deal with emissions."

Timothy Gardner and Valerie Volcovici report for Reuters March 9, 2020.
