Kamala Harris crushed former President Donald Trump in the debate last week. On issues like choice, support of small business, immigration, and foreign policy, the vice president articulated a vision aligned with the majority of American voters. Great. But one critical issue didn't get nearly enough airtime: our choice in November will determine whether the United States leads—and benefits from—the economy of the future.
But if Trump has his way, he will revoke the very policies that position America to lead the global clean energy economy.America, under the Biden-Harris administration, is already starting to reap the rewards of the climate transition. Looking ahead, the global opportunity for the continued development of clean energy technologies is worth around $650 billion a year by 2030 and clean energy manufacturing jobs are set to double to 14 million in the same time frame.
