Experts say first week of ‘Trump effect’ is derailing global climate movement’s ‘house of cards’

The global climate movement is already feeling the impact of President Donald Trump’s first executive orders, which have targeted green energy policies put in place by former President Joe Biden. Energy experts have reacted strongly to the actions taken by Trump in his first week in office, with many praising the president for his efforts to undo what they see as costly and ineffective climate policies.

Myron Ebell, chairman of the American Lands Council, commended President Trump for moving quickly to dismantle Biden’s climate agenda. Ebell believes that Trump’s actions will lead to a brighter future for America and the world, although he acknowledges that there will be significant opposition from climate groups.

One of Trump’s first executive orders was to eliminate the U.S. climate standards, which aimed to reduce emissions by 61-66% by 2035. He also ended the electric vehicle mandate and withdrew from the Paris Climate Agreement, a move that has been met with mixed reactions from energy experts.

Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute and a former Texas state representative, praised Trump for withdrawing from the Paris Accords, calling it a victory for American workers and families. Isaac believes that the agreement did little to address climate change and instead burdened Americans with costly mandates.

Marc Morano, publisher of Climate Depot, sees Trump’s presidency as potentially one of the most consequential in recent history. Morano believes that Trump’s policies could dismantle the entire climate change narrative perpetuated by the United Nations and other globalist organizations.

Despite the support from some energy experts, Trump’s executive orders have faced criticism from Democratic lawmakers and climate groups. Manish Bapna, president and CEO of the Natural Resources Defense Council, argues that Trump’s actions will only worsen the climate crisis.

Looking ahead, Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress are expected to continue rolling back green energy policies put in place over the past four years. Legislation has already been introduced to block Biden’s climate standards on household appliances, signaling a concerted effort to overturn the previous administration’s environmental initiatives.

Overall, the “Trump effect” on the global climate movement is already being felt, with supporters praising the president for his efforts to prioritize American interests and dismantle what they see as ineffective and costly climate policies. The coming months and years will likely see further battles between the Trump administration and climate advocates as they work to shape the future of energy policy in the United States and beyond.
