1/n Wow. @JoeBiden had a busy first day. In addition to being inaugurated he also signed a bunch of executive orders, one of which was a mass rollback of the previous administration's rollbacks (or at least he began the process), including:

2/n ... Reinstating (and perhaps strengthening) the Obama-era methane rules that would reduce emissions of the potent greenhouse gas from oil and gas operations, but that Trump mostly rescinded https://www.hcn.org/articles/methane-rules-in-danger

3/n Biden revoked the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline that would carry up to 830k bbl/day of bitumen from Alberta oil sands. https://landdesk.substack.com/p/data-dump-keystone-xl-epitaph-by

4/n It looks like he'll reinstate a number of regulations regarding automobile and appliance efficiency https://www.hcn.org/issues/52.6/infographic-who-wins-and-who-loses-with-these-4-regulatory-rollbacks

5/n He is putting a moratorium on any oil and gas development on the recently auctioned leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge

END 5/5 ... and he's begun the process of restoring (and perhaps enlarging?) the original boundaries of #BearsEarsNM and #GrandStaircaseEscalanteNM. (Plus much, much more).
