United States President Joe Biden announced on Monday the creation of American Climate Corp, which will be tasked with fighting climate change, protecting the environment, and the country's transition to clean energy.
Speaking at the White House, Biden said the campaign will provide more than 10,000 jobs for young people. He confirmed the applications for the team will start later in the day.
Biden also stressed that, during his tenure, his administration "attracted nearly $700 billion in private sector investments in advance manufacturing and clean energy" and created tens of thousands of jobs "here in America."
