Hey, this is Outside In. I'm Nate Hedgy.

Almost two years ago, I asked a simple seeming question on the show. Is Biden a good climate president?

The answer was complicated. Essentially, yes, if you believe that getting to net zero means liberals

getting on the good side of moderates and Republicans. But figuring out a president's climate

legacy or trying to guess what climate effects can

ripple out from the White House, that's tricky business.

And very soon, we're going to have a new president with a very different approach to climate

policy, which is why we are in luck.

Because here at NHPR, we work alongside the stellar, top-notch team at

Civics 101. This is a show all about how democracy works. Think of it like Schoolhouse Rock

for the 21st Century Adult. This week, they ran an episode that fits right into the sweet

spot of our two shows. And it answers the question, what are Trump's climate plans?

We're going to play that for you now.

Enjoy.

This episode is coming out. This episode is coming out just a week before former president Donald Trump once again becomes President Trump.

Now, Trump laid out plenty of intentions over the course of his campaign. We'll be returning to his day one promises in an upcoming episode.

But for today, we're going to take a closer look at an issue that has long been inciting and activating in this country.

I'm a 15-year-old climate warrior spokesperson for my generation, and I'm suing the United

States government for violating my constitutional right to a healthy atmosphere.

Scientists have concluded the growing number of fires is a result of climate change, but some

voters still remain skeptical.

Our colleague said, why are we having this discussion?
