Joe Biden fends off Democrat attacks over 'middle ground' position on climate change

Washington: Former vice-president Joe Biden's 2020 rivals and a group of progressive environmental organisations are attacking him as being weak on climate change, a sign of the central role global warming is shaping up to play as an issue in the Democratic primary.
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden says he
will find a middle ground on climate change policy.
The criticisms are based on a yet-to-be-released plan outlined in a Reuters report in which one person advising Biden characterised the Democratic front-runner as seeking a "middle ground" on policies to reduce planet-warming emissions.
