Donald Trump has chosen Chris Wright, a prominent fracking executive and CEO of Liberty Energy, as his Secretary of Energy. Wright, known for his skepticism about climate change, is expected to drive innovation and increase fossil fuel production in the U.S. Trump emphasized Wright’s role in the American Shale Revolution and aims to make significant cuts to regulations while overseeing a new Council of National Energy. The appointment is seen as a significant boost for the fossil fuel industry during the upcoming administration.
