Climate Depot note: I will be on the ground again this year attending the UN climate summit COP29 in Azerbaijan. Morano will be there for the week of November 10th through 15 in Baku, following the UN’s every effort to squelch your freedom and continue the dark path of net-zero rationing of energy, food, freedom of movement, and free speech. This will be my 20th out of the past 22 international UN summits to attend in person.
This year’s summit is being dubbed the “finance COP” because climate and green energy lobbyists are descending on the event to try to funnel even more U.S. taxpayer money into their pockets.
Morano: “With Donald Trump winning the US presidential election, the United Nations COP29 will turn into a giant wake, with the United Nations facing defeat of their anti-human climate agenda. The entire climate agenda is facing utter and complete collapse due to its unrealistic mandates and targets. Failure across the board is occurring, from emission targets to anemic electric vehicle sales to pushback by farmers fighting back against agricultural climate restrictions. The Trump victory will help push the United Nations and its net zero agenda into the dustbin of history. I will be on the ground with other team members to report daily on what’s happening post-election at one of the most consequential UN climate summits.”
President-elect Donald Trump selected former Republican New York Rep. Lee Zeldin to lead the Environmental Protection Agency, both individuals confirmed on Monday.
Zeldin will likely hit the ground running as the Trump administration looks to roll back the Biden EPA’s stringent regulations on gas-powered vehicles and coal and natural gas generation.
“Lee, with a very strong legal background, has been a true fighter for America First policies. He will ensure fair and swift deregulatory decisions that will be enacted in a way to unleash the power of American businesses, while at the same time maintaining the highest environmental standards, including the cleanest air and water on the planet,” Trump said in a statement. “I have known Lee Zeldin for a long time, and have watched him handle, brilliantly, some extremely difficult and complex situations. I am very proud to have him in the Trump Administration, where he will quickly prove to be a great contributor!”
Zeldin served four terms in the House and was the Republican candidate in New York’s 2022 gubernatorial contest against Democratic incumbent Kathy Hochul. Zeldin came within roughly 7 points of defeating Hochul in a race that was held as a historically strong performance by Zeldin’s campaign.
“I am deeply honored to have been asked by PresidenTrump to serve in his Cabinet. As EPA Administrator, we will restore American energy dominance, revitalize our auto industry to bring back American jobs, make the United States the global leader of Artificial Intelligence advancement, and slash the red tape holding back American workers from upward economic mobility,” Zeldin said in a statement to The New York Post, which first broke the news of Zeldin’s appointment.
Trump has also picked New York Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik to be the next U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
