UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is lauding1 US President Barack Obama's new plan to tackle climate change.
联合国秘书长潘基文对美国总统奥巴马处理气候变化提出的新计划表示赞美。
Meeting with Obama at the White House, Ban Ki-moon says the US is taking the lead in helping2 change the world.
"I'd like to congratulate you and highly commend your visionary and bold leadership announcement yesterday on a clean power plan. This is hugely important and visionary leadership. The US can and will be able to change the world in addressing a climate phenomenon."
The Clean Power Plan announced by Obama is designed to try to cut carbon emissions3 from the power sector4 by around one-third over the next 15-years years.
It will also place significant emphasis on wind and solar power, as well as other renewable energy sources.
Obama says he hopes the United Nations will help press other countries to follow suit.
