The paper attempts to look at the United States role within different frames (Global Renewable Energy, Asia-Pacific Partnership -APP) as a measure for Nigeria to emulate and adopt in solving its Energy challenge and as a way of mitigating the effect of climate change. The United States is taking a leading role in addressing climate change by advancing an ever-expanding suite of measures. They have initiated a number of polices and partnerships that span a wide range of initiatives from reducing emissions at home to developing transformational low-carbon technologies to improving observations systems that will help better understand and address the possible impacts of climate change. Hence the need for Global collaboration to adopt a means of less dependent on fossil power, paving way for Alternative Energy Sources that is both environmentally effective and economically sustainable.
