Jonathan Meer (Partner-New York, NY) provided his insight on President Biden's comments at the UN Climate Change COP26 Conference in “COP26 Day 2: Who moved the dial on Day 1?” an article that appeared on DAC Beachcroft’s website on November 2, 2021. Jonathan noted: “He [Biden] described his plan to incentivize and adapt to clean energy technology as part of job growth in the United States, which is part of a significant legislation that is pending before the U.S. Congress. Also relayed was his goal for the United States to lead by ‘action, not words’ with a net-zero economy by 2050.” Jonathan added: “These statements will likely reinforce the growing influence of environmental, social and corporate governance on corporate activities in the United States.”
