In this episode of The Green Conversation, I cover the Biden-Harris position on environmental policies, but is the position really for the environment? I go over details of the plan and how poorly the plan addresses actual environmental issues. Drawing upon simple logic, I break down the plan to find the underlying purpose of the plan. What are you concerned about with Biden’s Clean Energy Plan?
