About this episode
Environmentalists have been stunned by President Donald Trump’s rapid-fire attack on many of their achievements. From Joe Biden’s climate law to longstanding regulations – green groups now find themselves on the defensive seemingly everywhere. But this week, they’re rallying in New York City for Climate Week to try to forge a new path ahead. The only problem: two roads may be diverging as environmentalists debate different strategies to win back power. Plus, new guidance from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers that may be more bad news for renewables.
