He said Trump will likely pull the United States out of the landmark Paris Agreement and try to roll back many of the Biden Administration\u2019s signature climate moves, including the <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\"><a class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/biden-signs-climate-health-bill-9a7f349fa7b07387d20ad603f2ff4875\">2022 Inflation Reduction Act that included $375 billion in climate spending.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre we facing new headwinds? Absolutely. But we won\u2019t revert back to the energy system of the 1950s. No way,\u201d Podesta said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSetbacks are unavoidable, but giving up is unforgivable,\u201d Podesta said paraphrasing a Biden speech last week. \u201cThis is not the end of our fight for a cleaner, safer planet. Facts are still facts. Science is still science. The fight is bigger than one election, one political cycle in one country. This fight is bigger, still, because we are all living through a year defined by the climate crisis in every country of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During the campaign, Trump said would pull America from the Paris Agreement, rollback parts of the IRA and increase drilling and oil production. He has called emissions regulations part of a \u201cgreen new scam\u201d and claimed, without evidence, that offshore wind turbines harm whales. <\/p>\n<p>During Trump\u2019s first administration, between 2017 and 2021, many environmental regulations were rolled back, later to be reversed by the Biden administration. The incoming Trump administration has signaled it plans to now undo Biden\u2019s changes. <\/p>\n<p>During his press conference, Podesta ran through a shopping list of climate disasters, starting with the hottest day recorded, July 22, continuing with floods, hurricanes and droughts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNone of this is a hoax. It is real. It\u2019s a matter of life and death,\u201d Podesta said. \u201cFortunately, many in our country and around the world are working to prepare the world for this new reality and to mitigate the most catastrophic effects of climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Podesta said the Biden administration is still negotiating even as it prepares to leave.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are here to work, and we are committed to a successful outcome at COP29,\u201d Podesta said. \u201cWe can and will make real progress on the backs of our climate committed states and cities, our innovators, our companies and our citizens, especially young people who understand more than most that climate change poses an existential threat that we cannot afford to ignore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another senior U.S. official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said other countries are still working with American diplomats because they care what the U.S. thinks and any agreement struck here must be by consensus. Outside analysts had speculated the U.S. would be ignored.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn January, we\u2019re going to inaugurate a president whose relationship to climate change is captured by the words \u2018hoax\u2019 and \u2018fossil fuels\u2019,\u201d Podesta said. \u201cHe\u2019s vowed to dismantle our environmental safeguards and once again withdraw United States from the Paris Agreement. That is what he said. And we should believe him.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>___<\/h2>\n<p>The Associated Press\u2019 climate and environmental coverage receives financial support from multiple private foundations.
