In the event’s first session, André Corrêa do Lago, #Brazil’s diplomat in charge of this year’s #UnitedNations #climate negotiations, said #US #Energy Secy Chris Wright would be welcome at this year’s conference, despite the #Trump admin’s move to withdraw the US from the #ParisClimateAccord. Wright will be a guest at the #Climate Forward event later Wednesday.

The #CleanAir #Trump is bragging about in the #US is a product of #environmental #regulations that the Trump admin is currently gutting.

Trump has spent 10 minutes on “the global warming hoax.” He is celebrating the US withdrawal from the #ParisClimateAccord & “clean, beautiful #coal.” He is talking about American #energy exports & adds, “The United States has been taken advantage by much of the world, but not anymore.”

"My administration has also begun the largest deregulation campaign in history."

"I terminated the ridiculous & incredibly wasteful Green New Deal. I call it the Green New Scam, withdrew from the one-sided #ParisClimateAccord, & ended the insane & costly #ElectricVehicle mandate."

"The US has the largest amount of oil & gas of any country on Earth, & we're going to use it."

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump wasn't friendly to the environment in his first term, but is there a silver lining? The Brookings Institution's Samantha Gross tells Inside Climate Change that Big Oil wants the U.S. to stay in the Paris Climate Accord. “They’d like to see some consistency in the U.S. position on climate change, because they’re not making four-year investments or even eight-year investments, they’re making 20- and 30- and 40-year investments and they want a steady policy environment.” Read the full interview here:

But that wouldn't get Just Stop Oil any splashy news coverage, would it?

#Climate activists doused the front of the US Embassy building in #London with orange paint to protest #Trump’s victory.

“Trump’s win puts the lives of ordinary people at risk, everywhere,” #JustStopOil wrote on X, urging people to “disrupt business-as-usual” to prevent a “climate breakdown.”

On the campaign trail, Trump promised to once again exit the landmark #ParisClimateAccord, arguing that it places an unfair burden on the United States.
