According to leaked documents, the EPA plans to unleash a regulatory neutron bomb on the climate bureaucracy. If successful, it could dismantle the legal basis for all federal climate policy in a single stroke. Specifically, it would legally carve CO₂ off from the definition of “pollution” under federal law. It unwinds a massive 2009 EPA “Endangerment” order regulating carbon emissions from traditional power plants. And it would pre-emptively block future administrations from reimposing climate rules, by denying the statutory hook itself (CO₂).

Together, Trump’s 2025 energy pivot —anchored by the nuclear executive orders and EPA’s rollback of greenhouse gas rules— is profoundly historic. Not just in scale, but in doctrinal ambition. It blows past any previous U.S. energy shift. It is the single biggest U.S. energy strategic realignment since, at least, the 1973 Oil Crisis, and the most aggressive pro-nuclear policy in world history.
