Environmental organizations gear up to resist incoming Trump administration


Environmental organizations are gearing up to push back against the incoming Trump administration, anticipating policy changes that could harm environmental protections. Experts predict that Trump will focus on expanding oil and gas drilling, reducing federal land preservation, and repealing or scaling back Biden-era legislation. Trump’s Cabinet picks and his promises to prioritize drilling suggest aggressive changes to environmental policy.
Groups like the Center for Biological Diversity and the Natural Resources Defense Council are already preparing for legal battles and soliciting donations to fund these efforts. They anticipate challenges to environmental protections and policies, as well as potential attempts to dismantle national monuments like Bears Ears. While Trump’s previous environmental actions faced legal challenges, these groups are ready to fight back.
The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, aimed at achieving “American Energy Dominance” by favoring oil and gas while discontinuing federal climate research, is expected to guide the new administration’s agenda. However, bipartisan support for clean energy investments and clean water protection may limit the extent to which environmental policies are rolled back. Despite the challenges ahead, conservation groups are prepared to defend environmental protections in court and advocate for sustainable policies.
