As the United States pivots away from climate leadership under a second Trump administration, the transatlantic alliance finds itself at a critical juncture. The stakes are high: Decisions made now will shape the future of climate action, industrial policy, and democratic resilience on both sides of the Atlantic. This chapter examines the implications of the Trump administration\u2019s sharp turn from the Biden-era climate agenda and explores how U.S. states, European institutions, and progressive actors can sustain momentum for a just and green transition. It argues that even amid U.S. retrenchment at the federal level, there remains broad public support in the United States for ambitious climate action and ample space for transatlantic cooperation\u2014rooted in innovation, worker protection, and a shared vision of economic renewal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
