GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) — President Joe Biden has announced key steps at the U.N. climate summit to stop the methane leaks and invest in infrastructure abroad to limit global warming.

He’s promoting global efforts to preserve forests and stem methane leaks before returning to Washington. But Biden’s climate efforts on the global stage are playing out as Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia has again raised doubts about Biden’s social spending package, including its $555 billion in climate provisions.
