Join us for a presentation on the future of U.S. energy and environmental policy under a second Trump presidency. In this session, our team will analyze how Trump’s administration is expected to reshape the energy landscape, with a focus on expanding domestic energy production, deregulating the energy sector, and revising federal environmental policies. We will explore key issues, including the renewed push for fossil fuel development, changes to the regulatory framework governing energy projects, and the reversal of climate-focused initiatives. Additionally, we will discuss the impact of these policies on industries such as oil, gas, mining, and renewable energy, and examine the administration's approach to environmental regulation, including its stance on federal land use, renewable energy development, and climate change adaptation.
