I think Trump’s regulatory rolling back of cumulative impact in NEPA will be devastating. 🌎

Some of the things proposed by Trump are bad but this is devastatingly bad for our country. Looking at cumulative impacts of government policy is at the heart of the National Environmental Policy Act, ignoring it basically guts the law. We need to fully understand the impacts of government policies before moving forward, especially with large complicated projects. It’s always better to avoid impacts then try to fix them after the fact.
