Trump Wins, and the Climate Loses: Thoughts on the 2024 Election Results

Trump Wins, and the Climate Loses: Thoughts on the 2024 Election Results

We know the climate fight specifically just got a whole lot harder. Trump’s back in the White House, and with Republicans holding the Senate, we’re facing a serious uphill battle.

We’re talking about a president who’s called climate change a "hoax," pulled the U.S. out of the Paris Agreement, and rolled back major environmental protections like the Clean Air Act.

He’s promised to open up more drilling, and he’s even said he’ll stop offshore wind energy projects on day one. Add to that his plan to gut the EPA and pull funding from clean energy programs... it's not looking good for the climate.

But here’s the thing—we can’t afford to tap out.

So, take a breath. Remember your why. Get outside, take in some fresh air, and give yourself space to process.

Don’t forget to check in on your people. Some folks might be struggling more than others right now, and that’s where community comes in. We might not agree on everything, but we’re in this together.

And lastly, don’t disengage. The fight isn’t over—it’s just going to look a little different right now.
