'A bonfire of climate regulations': What Trump's first days in office could mean for the environment

^{Published on 2025-01-17 12:00:46 - MSN}

As Donald Trump prepares to become the 47th president of the United States, what will his first actions be on climate and energy, and how will they impact the rest of the world? View on euronews

The article from MSN discusses the potential environmental policy shifts if Donald Trump were to return to office, focusing on his first days in office. It highlights Trump's previous administration's actions, such as withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, rolling back numerous environmental regulations, and promoting fossil fuel industries. If re-elected, Trump could immediately reinstate policies that favor deregulation, potentially leading to a significant rollback of climate initiatives. This includes possibly dismantling the Inflation Reduction Act, which has been pivotal for climate action, and appointing officials with a history of opposing environmental regulations. The article suggests that these moves could result in a "bonfire of climate regulations," significantly impacting efforts to combat climate change by reducing emissions, protecting natural habitats, and promoting renewable energy.
