The Democrat will be formally sworn in as President in January 2021, following the electoral college vote certifications declaring him victor earlier this month.
As well as rejoining the Paris Agreement, the former Vice-President has pledged to spend $2 trillion on his climate plan over four years to drive down emissions.
His plans include upgrading millions of buildings to make them more energy efficient, as well as significant investment in public transport and electric vehicle manufacturing.
