75% Informative

Kamala Harris is widely expected to continue Biden 's work promoting EV adoption and clean energy technology.

Donald Trump has, unsurprisingly, run on a promise to undo it all.

The former president has said repeatedly he would repeal almost all of the Biden administration’s rules regarding emissions and fuel standards.

The bulk of the Trump campaign’s energy policies are focused on expanding oil and natural-gas drilling and investing in nuclear power plants.

Wind energy is only mentioned on the Trump site to deride the Biden administration's insane wind subsidies’ and generally dismiss windmills as dangerous and inefficient.
