Trump's Abhorrent Environmental Plans

Do you know what we can expect from the Trump administration regarding environmental policy?
Well, he's gone on record time and time again saying that Climate change is a hoax. He makes fun of efforts to mitigate the dire environmental situation...making fun of things, his MO for handling things.

He wants to get rid of all of the Biden-era environmental protections, including the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which boosts clean energy initiatives in our country. In case you don't know about the IRA, it gives generous tax incentive for renewable energy and cleaner energy sources which would incentivize industry to produce cleaner and more efficiently, hoping to drive down greenhouse gas emissions, and to help remain cost-effective with regards to renewables. I found numbers and funding specifics at this link; go check it out. And this page is about Project 2025's standing on climate change.

If you want to do your homework on Donald Trump's plans for the environment, you might start here at PBS. This piece from early November laments his plans to decimate emissions regulations. He plans on abolishing energy efficiency standards. Keep in mind, environmental care is a long-term issue that requires long-term solutions. NOT abusive fracking, not tax cuts for massive corporations that dirty up our air and water, Not threaten global climate change advocacy policies, and not removing fledgling plans for fossil fuel improvements. Not to mention "Drill, Baby, Drill."  😠

Trump also plans, once again withdraw from the Paris Agreement, as well as withdrawing the United States from the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, a move that would remove the United States from participation in global climate negotiations and make it more difficult for a future administration to rejoin the Paris Agreement. I find this terrifying and abhorrent.

And remember Lee Zeldin? Trump's boot-licking loyalist who an enemy of the environment who is nominated for the EPA! Contact your representatives TODAY!

I can't possibly write it all here! Use this post to do your homework!

Do you have children who are traumatized by the threat to our environment and the late date on our safe and healthy environment clock. I do. My own son is LIVID and upset that his life, the the life of his small nieces and nephew, will be severely negatively impacted by Trump's blatant disregard for the air we breathe and the water we drink. "More Coastline", indeed.

We are living in one of the most crucial moments for the environment in our lifetimes. It's insane that our own president elect is an enemy of the environment. He approaches problems like they are a business issue, a money issue, rather than a LIVING issue.

The ocean cannot keep pace with the changes caused by the climate crisis.

I read recently on the Greenpeace website that they are fighting a lawsuit (since 2017) against corporations and elites who are relentlessly pursuing their own power. And our planet is paying the price. I am alarmed and I am angry; so I support Greenpeace.
Will you join me?

What else can we do?
