    Inside Trump’s biggest climate rollback yet

    The Trump administration has moved to repeal the 2009 “endangerment finding” — the scientific determination that underpins the federal government’s authority to regulate climate change. The decision marks one of the most consequential climate policy shifts in years and sets up a major legal and political battle. POLITICO’s Jean Chemnick and Alex Guillén join host Nirmal Mulaikal to explain what the endangerment finding does, why it matters, and what happens next for U.S. climate policy. Alex Guillén is an energy reporter for POLITICO. Jean Chemnick covers climate change at EPA and other agencies for E&E News.  Stefan Todorovic is the video producer of POLITICO Energy.

    Trump to tech companies: Your data centers, your power bills

    POLITICO exclusively reported this week that the Trump administration is pushing some of the world’s biggest tech companies toward a new voluntary agreement that could reshape how data centers are built and who pays for the energy they consume. POLITICO’s Sophia Cai breaks down what’s in the draft agreement, what’s still unclear, and the implications for the U.S. power grid and the average American consumer. Plus, a new POLITICO poll shows that slightly more Americans think Democrats are the party most committed to reducing energy prices, and the endangerment finding, which is the scientific basis for several federal greenhouse gas regulations, is set to be repealed on Thursday. Sophia Cai is a White House reporter at POLITICO and co-author of West Wing Playbook. Stefan Todorovic is the video producer of POLITICO Energy.

    Trump’s critical minerals summit is today. Here’s what to know.

POLITICO’s Hannah Northey breaks down the details of these moves, the questions that remain, and the political and policy challenges ahead for the Trump administration.
