Project 2025, spearheaded by the Heritage Foundation, proposes a set of environmental policies that pose significant risks to our children's future on our one and only planet. The initiative emphasizes deregulation and reduced federal oversight, which could lead to a dire outlook for future generations.
I
Increased Pollution:?By weakening the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Project 2025 aims to roll back regulations designed to control pollution. This could result in higher levels of air and water pollution, which are linked to respiratory issues, developmental problems, and other health concerns in children [oai_citation:1,Project 2025 Publishes Comprehensive Policy Guide, ‘Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise’ | The Heritage Foundation](https://www.heritage.org/press/project-2025-publishes-comprehensive-policy-guide-mandate-leadership-the-conservative-promise).
II
Climate Change Neglect:?The plan deprioritizes action on climate change, ignoring the urgent need to address global warming. Children are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, including extreme weather events, heatwaves, and the spread of infectious diseases [oai_citation:2,A guide to Project 2025, the extreme right-wing agenda for the next Republican administration | Media Matters for America](https://www.mediamatters.org/heritage-foundation/guide-project-2025-extreme-right-wing-agenda-next-republican-administration).
Our children deserve a safe and healthy environment. The proposed environmental policies of Project 2025 threaten to undermine decades of progress in safeguarding our planet for future generations. We must advocate for policies that protect our environment and ensure a healthy future for all children.
