Young conservatives want to push Trump on climate change — the ‘America First’ way
Summary
The American Conservation Coalition (ACC), a conservative climate organization, aims to influence Donald Trump’s second term with an "America-first climate strategy" focused on nuclear energy, deregulation, and competing with China in clean energy. Founded in 2017, the ACC has grown into a significant political force with 60,000 members and connections to Trump’s Cabinet picks. Critics question its ties to fossil fuels and emphasis on economic over environmental goals, but ACC leaders prioritize tangible climate action over partisan rhetoric. With a growing grassroots base, the ACC seeks bipartisan solutions while challenging traditional conservative views on climate change.
