President-elect Donald Trump has selected oil executive Chris Wright, CEO of Liberty Energy, to head the Department of Energy. Wright, a vocal skeptic of climate change policies, is expected to push for increased fossil fuel production and reverse many of the Biden administration’s energy initiatives.

However, environmental groups are warning that his leadership could derail efforts to tackle climate change. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
