E&E News reporter Scott Waldman details Project 2025, a Republican plan that Donald Trump, or any Republican, could use to purge climate action from the federal government. In a nutshell:Conservative groups have formulated Project 2025, designed to undermine the federal government's efforts on climate and clean energy. The plan, 920 pages long and drafted by hundreds of conservative experts, lobbyists and former Trump administration officials, seeks to prevent the expansion of renewable energy, cut funding for environmental justice and close renewable energy offices. The proposal has been deemed a battle plan aimed at dismantling the administrative state and could come into effect on the first day of a Republican presidency. We are writing a battle plan, and we are marshaling our forces,” said Paul Dans, director of Project 2025 at the Heritage Foundation.
