Despite concerns that our next president would be less eco-friendly than President Biden, Beardsley said there was optimism that sustainable progress in the U.S. and abroad would continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three weeks into Trump administration, that optimism has been rattled. On inauguration day, President Trump rescinded Biden-era executive orders that sought to put climate action and environmental justice front and center, he shifted the country away from renewable energy and he froze Congressionally approved funds from the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Act. He has also took aim at environmental regulation. Similar actions have followed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this episode, I discuss the effects of the president&#8217;s early actions with Ben Evans, Federal legislative director for the U.S. Green Building Council\u2014what they mean for commercial real estate, the nation and the world.
