Biden’s climate adviser Gina McCarthy is leaving the White House. Her departure comes after he signed the largest-ever U.S. law aimed at combating climate change.
Gina McCarthy, President Joe Biden’s top domestic climate adviser, will leave the White House on Sept. 16, just weeks after Congress passed the largest-ever U.S. law to tackle climate change — legislation that her office helped craft.
McCarthy spent much of her career as an environmental regulator in New England before joining the Obama EPA. Biden brought her to the White House to head his newly formed Climate Policy Office, where she was tasked with creating a strategy to cut U.S.
That didn’t always sit well with agencies that accused her office of slowing new policies to preserve the fragile talks with Manchin. But McCarthy possessed the demeanor and political savvy to juggle the expectations of her role with the criticism, Podesta said ahead of Friday’s announcement. Yet McCarthy had long ago earned the trust of power companies at the forefront of making the clean energy transition happen, said Tom Kuhn, president of the electric power trade group Edison Electric Institute.
McCarthy’s office weighed in on key elements of the policies Congress passed, including performing the modeling that showed it was possible for the U.S. to slash emissions 40 percent below 2005 levels by 2030.
