***********************************************************
The Trump administration wasted no time in rolling back overwhelmingly popular, life-saving policies that protect clear air, clean water, and our progress toward a safe and stable climate.

In his first hours back in office, President Trump ordered a series of actions that abandon U.S. climate leadership at home and abroad:

** Declared a “national energy emergency” to benefit oil, gas, and coal companies
** Withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Climate Agreement
** Restarted permitting for liquefied natural gas exports
** Attacked clean energy
** Removed safeguards on drilling, logging, and mining in Alaska
** Pushed to greatly expand fossil fuel production by revoking the sweeping protections from oil and gas development the Biden administration issued on 625 million acres of public waters

Whether President Trump likes it or not, he is a climate president. He’s leading during a time when our planet is warming at record speed from burning fossil fuels and extreme weather events are causing deaths, destruction, and bankrupting our communities.

Backtracking on climate leadership will not stop Earthjustice from fighting for the clean energy future we need, even if this administration won’t.
