What a Trump presidency means for our environment and future generations.
The election of Donald Trump raises serious concerns about the future of federal environmental policy. During the campaign he vowed to dismantle the Clean Power Plan, withdraw from the Paris climate agreement, and roll back regulations that protect our air and water.
While a single president cannot undo decades of progress overnight, his administration will likely embolden fossil fuel interests and limit the ability of federal agencies to address climate change and pollution. This means states and communities will need to step up to protect public health and advance clean energy.
Now more than ever citizens must stay engaged, hold elected officials accountable, and push for policies that safeguard our environment for future generations. Regardless of what happens in Washington, PennFuture will continue to advocate for a just transition to a renewable energy future and defend the health and well‑being of Pennsylvania's communities.
