Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to announce what Canada’s new targets will be for reducing greenhouse gas emissions by the end of the decade.
The government says he will unveil the targets during a virtual address to world leaders convened by U.S. President Joe Biden for a summit on fighting climate change.
Trudeau will speak at a session which the U.S. State Department says is where leaders will discuss their country’s situation and “announce new steps to strengthen climate ambition.”
Canada enters the event as Biden is trying to advance America’s efforts on fighting climate change and has focused billions in spending to promote electric vehicles.
