Summary
Donald Trump’s cabinet picks, including Chris Wright for energy secretary, Lee Zeldin for EPA head, and Doug Burgum for interior secretary, reflect a strong pro-fossil fuel stance and skepticism or outright denial of climate science.
Wright, a fossil fuel executive and climate change denier, exemplifies the administration’s alignment with Project 2025, a plan to dismantle environmental protections.
Critics warn these appointments will stall clean energy progress and weaken air and water protections.
Trump’s choices signal a rollback of climate action despite global momentum toward renewable energy investments.
trump broke domestic fossil fuel production records his first term…
And then Biden broke those
Neither party will take climate change seriously, because the fossil fuel industry pays them too much for either of them to acknowledge reality.
At least when it’s trump doing it, there’s a large public outcry from the left that we need to do better.
When Biden was doing it, I just got called a Russian for pointing out shipping coal to China with fossil fuel powered ships so it can be burnt with less regulations wasn’t a good thing.
Still don’t get that to be honest.
As much as you may want it, you can’t change everything, everywhere, all at once. The energy system is vast beyond comprehension and it takes a ton of time and effort. You can’t snap your fingers and change everything.
This is the danger of you blocking everyone, your thoughts remain unchallenged.

Yeah, who cares about queer people, am I right? Boys Beware!
They might both be pro-fracking, but what are ya gonna do?
Even the third party “environmentalist” is bought off by a foreign government…
And people still don’t understand why 1/3 of voters stay home. Yelling at them to vote anyways clearly isn’t working, but if we run the candidate they want, we get a better president for everyone and Republicans have almost no chance of winning.
There isn’t a logical explanation for the DNC’s behavior except that they’d rather have a republican president then a progressive Dem.
The people running the party (and definitely the ones funding it) don’t have the same goals as the people voting for the party.
And enough voters can smell that, that we now have to deal with four years of trump
