ANN ARBOR, Michigan — Beth Miller is the kind of environmentally conscious voter who, on paper, should be most vocally supportive of President Joe Biden’s efforts to reduce America’s carbon footprint.
But months from the election, Miller said she had heard next to nothing about what Biden had done to combat climate change. And what little she had heard hadn’t impressed her.
“He’s been as centrist as he can be on that issue,” said Miller, who thought Biden was more worried about angering red-state voters than passing ambitious climate change legislation. Asked if she knew about any of Biden’s climate priorities, she demurred.
