President Donald Trump is rolling back the Biden administration’s policies promoting clean energy.

But Republicans haven’t abandoned adopting clean energy targets, including nuclear energy.

The Paris Climate Agreement is a legally binding international treaty adopted by 196 nations in December 2015 .

The Conservative Climate Caucus consists of dozens of Republican House members who are focused on reducing emissions without "reducing energy choices".

By 2050 , 10 billion tons of carbon dioxide will need to be removed from the atmosphere every year.

Republican -led states such as Alaska and Wyoming have the highest potential use for carbon dioxide removal technologies.

The Republican Party does not push for greenhouse gas emission quotas and mandates as the Democratic Party does.
