Trump Vows Reversal of Democrats’ Green Agenda

Townhall reported that President-elect Donald Trump criticized outgoing President Joe Biden for pushing a green agenda through executive orders in his final days. Biden banned offshore drilling across over 625 million acres of U.S. waters, citing environmental risks and minimal fossil fuel potential. Though largely symbolic, the move drew praise from environmentalists but criticism from energy industry leaders and Trump allies. Not to mention terrible timing as a lot of the country (including some of us in Texas!) are enduring freezing temperatures!

Biden also issued stricter efficiency standards for natural gas water heaters, aiming to cut emissions but raising concerns about affordability.

The New York Post reported:

A Biden administration ban on certain natural gas water heaters as part of the lame duck president’s climate agenda could send prices soaring for the elderly and the poor.

Under the policy, new non-condensing, natural gas-fired water heaters will be prohibited for sale starting in 2029 due to concerns about carbon-dioxide emissions. The policy comes during President Biden’s twilight days in the White House and was quietly announced without a press release.

If the policy takes effect, as it is slated to on March 11, a little less than 40% of the tankless water heaters currently on the market would be banned, according to an estimate from the Appliance Standards Awareness Project.

Trump pledged to reverse these actions. He posted, “Biden is doing everything possible to make the TRANSITION as difficult as as possible, from Lawfare such as has never been seen before, to costly and ridiculous Executive Orders on the Green New Scam and other money wasting Hoaxes. Fear not, these “Orders” will all be terminated shortly, and we will become a Nation of Common Sense and Strength. MAGA!!!”
