How Biden is undoing Trump’s Legacy of Environmental Obliteration

US President Joe Biden is seeking to reverse his predecessor’s policies on environment. As soon as he entered the White House, Biden led America back to the Paris Accord. Former president Donald trump had led US out of the agreement and went ahead to mock and castigate the fight against climate change.
Just like many countries across the globe, United States of America has in the recent past been worst hit by erratic storms, gigantic wildfires and sweltering heat waves. Trump had dismantled policies aimed at cutting carbon emissions and opened a leeway for the development of fossil fuels.
Biden regards climate change as the “existential threat of our time.” The US president is keen to protect the endangered species and their natural habitat, strengthening regulations on carbon emissions, protecting the land that was opened up to drilling, regulating the toxic substances, protecting waterways and drinking water and enforcing environmental regulations.
Biden’s attempt to battle climate change has ignited a serious backlash from Republicans. The president’s move has been regarded as, ’job killing and elitist.’ Republican lawmakers have vowed to seek legal redress in blocking Biden’s decision to stop gas and oil drilling on public lands.
Some Republican Senators have gone to the extent of believing that Biden is “more interested in the interests of Paris citizens than the jobs of Americans” by rejoining the Paris agreement to cut carbon emissions.

Why Matiang'i comeback threatens Ruto's re-election bid

  Former Interior cabinet secretary Dr. Fred Matiang'i is a great rival to President William Ruto in his 2027 re-election contest.
