  • New York Focus climate reporter Colin Kinniburgh reflects on his environmental coverage over the past year and what's coming on the beat in 2025.

The article from NYS Focus discusses the potential impact of Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign on New York's climate law, specifically focusing on the state's efforts to reduce traffic congestion through congestion pricing. Trump, who has historically opposed environmental regulations, could pose a significant threat to these initiatives if elected. The piece highlights how his administration might undo or challenge New York's climate policies, including the congestion pricing plan aimed at reducing vehicle emissions in Manhattan. It also explores the broader implications for climate action, noting that Trump's policies could lead to a rollback of environmental protections at both the state and federal levels, potentially stalling New York's progress towards its ambitious climate goals. The article underscores the tension between local environmental efforts and national political shifts, emphasizing the vulnerability of state-level climate initiatives to changes in federal leadership.
