Obama returns to Chicago Tuesday for Emanuel climate change meeting
Former president Barack Obama will be in Chicago Tuesday to speak at Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s two-day climate change conference. Mayors from North American cities will sign the Chicago Climate Charter pledging to reduce emissions and make their cities more environmentally friendly. “President Obama helped lead the fight against climate change with bold and decisive action, and we are honored he will be joining the North American Climate Summit where local leaders from around the world will make meaningful commitments to climate solutions,” Emanuel said.
