“Drill, baby, drill” was one of Donald Trump’s key campaign slogans.

What is the future of climate policy in the United States?

Join FP Live for a conversation with John Podesta, President Joe Biden’s top climate diplomat. Podesta was also White House chief of staff to former President Bill Clinton and will share insights on what to make of the Trump transition so far.
