Top U.S. oil lobby API targets landmark EU climate law, policy document shows
The declaration coincides with U.S. fossil fuel companies’ use of Trump’s trade tensions and international discord to undermine EU climate laws.
The US oil lobby will target the EU's landmark climate regs in 2026, per its new policy agenda.

Mark Carney’s Goal Is To ‘Increase Our Oil Production,’ Says Former Chief of Staff
It’s an energy agenda seemingly at odds with the prime minister’s previous stated commitments to addressing climate change.
