Project 2025 Proposes Many Changes to Energy Production & Regulation.

Project 2025's Mandate for Leadership contains several proposals related to environmental policy that could have significant impacts on average Americans. Here's an outline of the key environmental proposals and their potential negative effects:

Gut the Endangered Species Act (ESA), removing protections for species like grey wolves and Yellowstone grizzlies.
Repeal the Antiquities Act, which allows presidents to protect public lands as national monuments.
Eliminate the EPA's requirement to set health-based air quality standards.
Undermine key parts of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which would reduce input from the communities affected by major projects.
Remove protections for wetlands and clean water access under the Clean Water Act. This would mean an increased risk of polluted drinking water for many Americans.
Eliminate restrictions on drilling for fossil fuels on publics lands.
Stop federal investments in renewable energy.
Allow new fossil fuel projects, specifically on public and currently protected lands.
Shut down over a dozen government offices and agencies studying climate change.

Increase air pollution
Increase water pollution
More frequent extreme weather like tornados and floods
Reduced access to public lands
Using those public lands for fracking, digging, and more.
Spread of airborne and waterborne diseases
Job losses for people working in the energy sector
Higher healthcare costs
Reduced property values for people living in areas affected by the increase in pollution and resource extraction

There are many more details in Project 2025 that touch on the environment, regulations, and policies. Here's how it would affect you:

Without the proper support for the EPA in particular, they will lose their ability to regulate environmental issues that we know are problems for the country and the world.
Things like public health crises will become more prevalent due to the polluted air, water, and land.
People will lose their jobs.
