Biden to ban offshore oil, gas drilling in vast areas ahead of Trump term • FRANCE 24 English
U.S. President Joe Biden will ban new offshore oil and gas development along most U.S. coastlines, a decision that President-elect Donald Trump, who has vowed to boost domestic energy production, may find difficult to reverse. The White House said on Monday Biden will use his authority under the 70-year-old Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to protect all federal waters off the East and West coasts, the eastern Gulf of Mexico and portions of the northern Bering Sea in Alaska. France 24’s environment editor Valérie Dekimpe takes a closer look.

He shouldn't be able to effect policy after he lost
Yes!!!!😂❤😊
If the United States does not guarantee its energy self-sufficiency, that means nothing more than "democracy" for countries with energy resources.
Biden will go down in history as America’s worst president ever. He did absolutely nothing for this country. We are ashamed of his presidency. Can’t wait until January 20th when a real president will step back into office.
So what? Trudeau is out and Canadian crude is in.
and Trump will unban it in 2 weeks, this is pointless
Biden was deemed in cognitive decline by the courts he's not even able to stand trial that won't be upheld.
So there will be no new offshore drilling for the next two weeks? Why would you even report that as serious?
Trump will just revoke it
yes a ban on usa coastlines and drill ealse where in the world because there no body. who elected this president donald duck.
So, this guy prefers to keep bringing oil from Iran, and Venezuela instead of producing it here. It says a lot…
Biden will go down in History as worst President ever.
All this is is a method to make others rich
These politicians just waste time to do these useless "work". They just pretend they are working. Everyone knows Trump will remove these bans/policies immediately after he takes the office.
We steal so much Syrian oil that it won't matter.
Only very stupid people will think this "move" actually will have any effect on the climate
Executive order. These can be undone on day one by the next administration, and it will be. Biden should really just stay on vacation.
Trump wants to decrease reliance on foreign oil. Whats wrong with that.
Boo
Biden should ban himself from any decisions.
More pointless, meaningless, foolhardy democrat politics.
Trump will reverse it in few weeks !!!
Biden didn’t do this who ever has been running the country did this
"Threat to democracy"
😂😂😂
Biden is trying so hard to harm Trump's economic plan
✅of course the congress will allow drill babie drill no question about that 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
Every single headline about Biden's new law will be reversed immediately with Trump. It's all media clickbait
Joe Biden wants us to be energy dependent. Trump had us energy independent and it’s gonna take him 4 year to get him back to the energy independence that we were almost at
Great! Energy prices for Americans isnt high enough!
This displays bidens true identity as a threat to democracy because he knows Trump's election win as a mandate of the voting public.
But Biden wants to interfere with the wishes of the voting public.
MAGA reeducation camp gonna be hard on the communist faction. The democrat party
Idk what planet he is on and has been living on for 50 years for that matter but this won't stand up at all. Ridiculous!
The US exports about 4 billion gallons of crude oil per day then complains about not having enough oil and high gas prices.
USA land is toxic ocean is same
