How Trump Is Quickly Dismantling The Climate-Industrial Complex
A flurry of executive orders signals the end of climate ideology in policy.
by Dr. Matthew Wielicki  Jan 23, 2025 

In a whirlwind of activity, President Trump began his second term by signing a series of executive orders aimed squarely at dismantling what I call the “climate-industrial complex.” [emphasis, links added]


This flurry of actions is reminiscent of his first term, marked by bold, often polarizing decisions, but this time, the focus is laser-sharp: unshackling American energy and science policy from the grip of bureaucratic overreach and ideological orthodoxy.

Compared to his predecessors, including President Biden, Trump’s use of executive orders has always been unapologetically direct.

While Biden used executive actions to accelerate climate regulations and embed climate priorities into every federal agency, Trump’s latest orders aim to undo these efforts, exposing what he described as the “weaponization of science and policy.”

Let’s examine each executive order, exploring its content and potential impact on climate science, energy policy, and the broader dismantling of the climate-industrial complex.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Mr. Trump should go further.

That is to say, he should issue (initially in the form of a proclamation), a "right to use energy".

In it, he might address the following:
The right to extract and use natural energy resources for human needs:
- right to extract and use coal for power generation, heating, and other uses as may be required
- right to extract and refine petroleum for motor fuels
- right to extract and refine petroleum into products intended for industrial and other uses
- right to extract and use natural gas for heating, power generation and industrial and agricultural and industrial uses
- such rights to extend to both individuals and corporations
- etc.
