The president of the United States has made it clear that he is not interested in climate change because he considers it a farce, therefore, he has not taken the necessary importance to prevent companies and inhabitants of his country from eliminating the excess pollutants emitted.

As a result, the judge blocked drilling activities on nearly 300,000 acres (1,200 square kilometers) under bid in the western state of Wyoming while additional environmental studies are carried out.
The judge, Rudolph Contreras, a federal judge for the District of Columbia, said the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) "did not give sufficient consideration to climate change" when bidding for federal lands in Wyoming for oil exploitation. and gas.
According to Contreras, "given the national and cumulative nature of climate change, considering each individual drilling project in isolation deprives the agency and the public of the context necessary to evaluate oil and gas drilling on federal land before irrevocably committing to it." ».
It should be noted that the Department of the Interior had argued that these analyzes are "too speculative in the bidding phase" and had proposed "subsequent and site-specific evaluations" of the tenders.
The lawsuit was filed by environmental groups WildEarth Guardians and Physicians for Social Responsibility.
