The Trump administration has dismantled nearly 100 policies focused on clean air, water, wildlife and toxic chemicals, and left more than a dozen rollbacks unfinished. Here’s how they add up.
Quite a few of them, yeah. And that’s in spite of a corrupt 6–3 Republican SCOTUS breathing down his neck and the neck of his EPA. Was this supposed to be a “gotcha”?
The environmental policy of the Joe Biden administration includes a series of laws, regulations, and programs introduced by United States President Joe Biden since he took office in January 2021. Many of the actions taken by the Biden administration reversed the policies of his predecessor, Donald Trump. Biden’s climate change policy focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, similar to the efforts taken by the Obama administration. Biden promised to end and reverse deforestation and land degradation by 2030. The main climate target of the Biden administration is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by the United States to net zero by 2050. A climate team was created to lead the effort.
On his first day in office, Biden began to make policy changes to protect the environment. He began revising and strengthening the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and ordered a number of executive orders aimed at reviewing or undoing the environmental policies of the former administration, including removal of some wildlife protections, the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, and drilling for oil and gas on federal lands. In the same day he rejoined the Paris Agreement.
Literally Day 1, but I guess you thought you were being clever by doing zero research but acting confidently smarmy enough not to be called out for it.
“I was really totally curious about this trivially searchable information and not JAQing off at all bro I promise. Please ignore my months-long comment history defending Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, talking about how the US shouldn’t be defending Taiwan, fluffing third-party spoiler candidates, and otherwise spreading tankie propaganda.”
Which specific regulations did he not put back which you’re concerned about? I couldn’t in good faith say “all of them” because there’s no head-to-head comparison, so I hedged with “quite a few”. But I’m sure you know them by heart, because I know you’re just so, so concerned about the issues. Fucking clown.
This is so transparently projecting from the fact that you can’t answer by naming a single policy or regulation, which is pretty sad. Go ahead. The NYT listed 100 of them; it should be easy to find at least one. And you’re in a Solarpunk community to boot, so I’m sure you care enough about the environment that you keep up with this news, right? You’re not just concern trolling about an issue you don’t actually keep up with to get in a shallow “own” against the Biden administration and then scrambling to save face when it’s pointed out you don’t know shit about fuck, right?

Just wondering if there are new developments on this 4 year old story

Biden put “quite a few” of the rules back in place but not all of them why didn’t he put all of them back in place
lmao

So you have no idea if biden put these rules back in place but you’re confidently asserting it anyway and getting angry at me for being curious…
Which one(s)? Go ahead. Tell me; this should be easy for you, because I know you actually care about this and aren’t just commenting for the rubles.
Edit: wait, what do you mean “no idea”? The Wikipedia article is full of regulations Biden verifiably put back into place which Trump did away with.
Its ok to just not respond if you don’t know the answer
