Trump's Climate Policies: From Paris Exit to Petrostate Ambitions

President-elect Donald Trump plans to withdraw the US from the Paris climate agreement and open national monuments for drilling, according to reports. His transition team, including former officials David Bernhardt and Andrew Wheeler, is preparing executive orders to reduce federal land protections and eliminate environmental justice offices. Trump aims to promote fossil fuel production and reduce regulations, reversing policies from the Biden administration. He also intends to appoint an "energy czar" and terminate a permit pause on new natural gas export terminals.
