America's re-entry into the Paris climate accord, as well as other climate-related actions taken by the Biden administration, won’t change the way things are currently being done as much as accelerate what’s already occurring with infrastructure, industry sources say.

“The industries we support, they have a longer term view of the environment and don’t necessarily look at short term changes,” says Steve Nalefski, manager of Burns & McDonnell’s environmental group. “They have been very proactive at staying on path of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and looking at ways to develop a renewable portfolio.”
