Big news: President Biden just banned new offshore drilling in along most of the U.S. coastline! These vulnerable areas are now protected from future oil-and-gas leasing. The withdrawals include 625 million acres of public waters off the Atlantic, Pacific, Alaska, and Gulf coasts. With this move, every president this century has recognized that some areas of the ocean are just too risky or too sensitive to drill. "President Biden just made a powerful investment in the resiliency of communities, regional economies, and marine wildlife across the coastal United States," said Earthjustice Vice President of Litigation for Lands, Wildlife, and Oceans Drew Caputo. "These protective policies will ensure safer conditions and more room for prosperity for millions of people living along American coasts, for thousands of businesses that rely on undisturbed oceans, and for vulnerable wildlife. Our work ahead is clear: we'll continue the fight to ensure that Gulf communities in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama can also increasingly live without the threat from offshore drilling on their front doorstep."

Earthjustice President Abbie Dillen joined the Climate One podcast to discuss what climate progress may look like in the coming years. Just like last time, we will hold this administration accountable.
The implications of a Trump presidency for climate policy appear grim. But environmental organizations — even those aligned with the Republican party — are already pushing back on his proposals. But does this mean climate progress in the U.S. is still possible for the next four years? For a better understanding of where climate policy stands under our incoming president, Greg Dalton and Ariana Brocious interview Abbie Dillen of Earthjustice and Heather Reams of Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES). Their conversation is now available wherever you find your podcasts.
