 Rebuilding climate regulation: What Biden probably will (and will not) accomplish

By Daniel J. Metzger | November 7, 2020
 

In a speech in September Joe Biden described the “the undeniable, accelerating, and punishing reality of climate change.” He has promised that his administration will take on the problem. To get started, a Biden administration will have to undo many of President Trump’s deregulatory efforts over the past four years.

As promised, when Trump took office he quickly got to work aggressively dismantling Obama-era climate regulation. Over the past four years his administration has taken a dizzying spectrum of actions, large and small, to put business ahead of the environment.

President-elect Biden will undoubtedly begin reversing some of these actions as soon as he takes office. Some of Trump’s damage can be undone right away, but getting climate action fully back on track will take years.

Joe Wooten:
He ain't President-Elect yet.

Including directly impacting 10M oil jobs, 20M support jobs, and including businesses and families impacted, 50M folks impacted.

This will be the Blow Biden legacy.  Dispair, Dystopia, and Disaster.
