"The Willow oil project challenges Biden's climate legacy"

TL;DR Summary
President Biden's decision to approve the Willow project, a large-scale oil drilling proposal in Alaska, has caused backlash from climate activists and young supporters who feel betrayed by the administration's promises on climate change. While White House officials defend the decision, emphasizing legal issues and the need for energy independence, environmental groups have already sued to block the project. The tension between honoring climate change promises and the nation's energy needs is a challenge for Biden's climate legacy, especially as he plans to announce his campaign for reelection.
