16. The Assault on Our Oceans from Within
Our oceans are under assault.
From the US withdraw from the Paris Agreement and the number of executive orders issued by President Trump we are seeing an all out pummeling of initiatives designed to protect the environment and the oceans.
On April 8, 2025 an executive order was signed to reinvigorate America’s beautiful clean coal industry. Another executive order looks to sunset environmental regulations. There is also a presidential memorandum targeting regulation related to the environment.
As the US moves away from environmental leadership, we will continue to see the planet get hotter, and ultimately the demise of the oceans through global warming, pollution, offshore drilling and overfishing.
