💨 Abstract
President Donald Trump declared a national energy emergency, withdrew the U.S. from the Paris climate deal, and vowed to increase oil and gas production, while easing regulations and halting new wind power development. Trump's moves signal a U-turn in Washington's energy policy, with the aim to lower consumer prices, refill strategic reserves, and improve national security. Environmental groups have said they will challenge the executive orders in court.
