Big Oil Is Urging Trump to Stop Battle on Offshore Wind The president’s assault on wind farms is stalling a legislative push to speed permitting for energy projects.

“Oil lobbyists have made the case to Trump officials in recent weeks that his attacks on wind farms off the U.S. coast risk derailing congressional efforts to speed up permits for energy projects, according to people familiar with the matter.” www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Quick Brief: Supreme Court takes up a big climate change question The court took up a familiar question. Will it decide the issue once and for all?

The Supreme Court yesterday agreed to consider an important appeal that could determine whether dozens of state & municipal climate lawsuits against Big Oil can stay viable.

It raises some important questions: www.landmark.earth/p/supreme-co...

Update: Young people represented by @youthvgov.bsky.social have also filed a petition challenging the rule.

They kids — who successfully sued Montana over its rules enabling climate change, and settled with Hawaii later — claim the rule violates the U.S. Constitution.

BREAKING: A coalition of over a dozen environmental groups sued the Trump EPA this morning, challenging the recent repeal of the endangerment finding.

“The EPA’s rollbacks are based on political poppycock, not science or law, and the courts should see it that way."

“The executive branch cannot re-write Congress’s work or overrule the Supreme Court because it would prefer to prioritize its own policy preferences over the law,” the group said.

The group, led by Massachusetts, said last year that the CAA “clearly directs that greenhouse gases are pollutants” under the law, adding that the Supreme Court “unequivocally held that greenhouse gases are air pollutants subject to” the 2007 case Massachusetts v. EPA.

The Trump administration announced it was repealing the rule — which forms the legal basis for virtually all major climate rules in the U.S. — last week.

The lawsuit filed in the D.C. Circuit is likely to be joined soon by another by a group of Democratic attorneys general.

Trump’s EPA set to finalize repeal of the endangerment finding. A bitter legal fight is coming. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has called it the “largest deregulatory action” in U.S. history.

New just now: The EPA will formally revoke the 2009 endangerment finding, a foundational rule for climate change regulations.

Expect a big courthouse fight.

UPDATE: Shortly after Trump and Zeldin announced the repeal of the endangerment finding, Massachusetts replied.

“I’ll see you in court,” @massago.bsky.social said.

I’d heard Florida might be a dark horse wildfire risk state.

Didn’t think it’d show up so bright in a map like this, though. Wow

Ah. Ty!

I’m not online enough but did google. Which ad? The claude thing?

NEWS: Offshore wind developers have scored a clean sweep in early legal challenges to the Trump administration’s attempt to halt their projects.

But for real, if “no politics” from Bad Bunny and Green Day is the goal then I really don’t think Goodell’s team did a very good job during vetting

I mean… maybe not in english?

STATE OF NEW YORK v. BURGUM, 1:26-cv-00072 - CourtListener.com Docket for STATE OF NEW YORK v. BURGUM, 1:26-cv-00072 — Brought to you by Free Law Project, a non-profit dedicated to creating high quality open legal information.

DOCKET: www.courtlistener.com/docket/72126...

Despite that emergency, the federal government has routinely erected obstacles making it difficult for renewable energy sources like wind and solar to be developed.

The attack on offshore wind comes as President Donald Trump has signed executive orders declaring a national “energy emergency,” and has urged fedreal agencies to work quickly to approve permits for energy products.

The ruling is the fifth time that a judge has ruled that a a partially-finished offshore wind farm can proceed following the Trump administration’s Dec. 22 order.

New York had argued in its complaint that the stop-work order put state plans for the buildout of renewables in jeopardy, and noted that national security concerns around radar interference from the farms were accounted for during permitting.

Sunrise Wind, which is being developed by Danish developer Ørsted, and the state of New York had filed seperate challenges calling the stop-work order aribtrary and capricous, and their cases were eventually consolidated.

The decision is the fifth loss in a row for the Trump administration, which had ordered five offshore wind projects to stop construction in December due to alleged national security concerns.
