Dozens of conservative organizations have banded together to provide Trump a road map—known as Project 2025—to boost fossil fuels and limit government climate science

Former President Donald Trump’s second term could begin with a clear direction on climate policy: Trash it.

Dozens of conservative organizations have banded together to provide Trump a road map — known as Project 2025 — if he prevails in November. It outlines a series of steps that the former president could take to reverse the climate actions taken by the Biden administration.

Trump has already said that boosting fossil fuels would be one of his top priorities. A proposed executive order in Project 2025 offers him a path for that goal, laying out a total restructuring of the U.S. Global Change Research Program to diminish its role across more than a dozen federal agencies.

Project 2025 also calls for replacing the White House climate adviser with an "energy/environment" adviser who would pivot to serving the needs of the fossil fuel industry.

They're paid for by everyone who earns cash with coal and oil. That's it.

Simple, just stop researching it, and it wont sound like a problem!

Where have I heard that before? 🤔

I'm guessing....when Ron DeSantis stopped collecting covid statistics and then turned around and said he studied the science himself instead of listening to the actual scientist, and that's why Florida's economy was so strong post pandemic?

America was once a leader in science and technology. Trump and the Republicans would have us go back to coal stoves and bedpans.

I swear conservatives just want to destroy everything good out of pure spite. That's their whole agenda.

[-] Spitzspot 20 points 7 months ago

Further isolation from the independents isn't the way to win an election, so keep it up!💯👍

Project 2025 goes a lot farther than just climate change. It's the plan to set Trump up as a dictator. It's like the modern day Mein Kampf

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Its terrifying. How many people support that? How many powerful people?

[-] grue@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

Sure, because refusing to see something obviously means it's not there.

These demented shitstains literally have infant-level object permanence.

Trump is such a dumb fucking loser, I hope he rots in jail from ass cancer.

[-] teamevil@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

Project 2025 is just horrendous and manages to get even worse the more that comes out...

Always fun when politics and !climate@slrpnk.net meet. :hidethepain:

The reason Republicans refuse to do anything about climate change is because they're the political wing of the Christian Nationalists. Their Bible says that the world can't end until Israel reclaims the temple mount and after that, "a third of the grass and trees will burn up."

They're working on making that "prophesy" come true so they can dupe more people into their death cult.

When you realize that everything the Republicans do is for the sole purpose of helping Christians with their absolutely fucking hostile takeover of not just the United States, but the entire world, you'll have a better understanding of the lunacy we're seeing on the daily.
