Trump Nominates Climate Change Denier Lee Zeldin to Lead EPA, Rollback of Climate Rules Expected
Nov 17, 2024, 07:45 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Lee Zeldin, a CEO who denies the climate crisis, to lead the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This decision aligns with Trump's previous promises to support Big Oil and Gas executives. The nomination has raised concerns among climate advocates, who fear a rollback of climate change commitments under the incoming administration. Trump's victory has been described as casting an 'ominous shadow' over efforts to combat the climate crisis. The president-elect has previously stated that climate change is a Chinese hoax, and the U.S. is expected to scale back its commitment to combating climate change.
