2020 Democrats are rolling out aggressive climate change plans that would go further than Obama ever did. “You pick a topic and it’s like President Obama might as well have been a Republican,” said one oil and gas exec
But as the latest reports from scientists in groups like the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ramp up warnings that time is running short to avoid catastrophic warming, a new group of young activists in organizations like the Sunrise Movement have joined older environmental groups to press Democrats to take aggressive steps.
“Almost every candidate has committed to immediately or rapidly ending leasing on public land and we trust that they’ll find the mechanisms,” Marienau said. “A new president could certainly make it much more difficult to drill and produce on federal land, but an outright pulling of the emergency brake is going to be very difficult to implement,” said Larry Nettles, an environmental law attorney at Vinson & Elkins LLP in Houston.
“Regulatory changes are not only limited in scope, but limited in time,” Molchanov said. “It can be undone just as easily it as originally done. Anything truly game changing would have to get through Congress.”
