Trump's war against the environment

Inside Climate News From his first days in office, President Donald Trump set out to unleash fossil fuel extraction, retreat from clean energy development, halt investment in environmental justice, and slash the budgets of government agencies responsible for environmental regulation and monitoring. 

Our entire newsroom mobilized to track the policy rollbacks, the data erasures, the staffing cuts, and the funding clawbacks. The whole body of work – more than 350 stories – is collected here: Trump 2.0: The Reckoning.

Included in the series is this exclusive scorecard that tracks federal lawsuits on climate and the environment involving the administration. It chronicles the counter-offensive being mounted in the courts by advocates and states working to preserve America’s infrastructure of environmental protection.
