"If we’re being honest, 2025 did not start out great. For basically the whole
month of January, a series of wildfires raged across Los Angeles, killing
hundreds (more on that number below). On the other side of the country, an
Arctic blast brought historic snowfall and bitter cold deep into the South.
Then Donald Trump took office for a second time on January 20 and immediately
began to unravel the climate progress the United States had made under Joe
Biden.
The rest of the year, which is on track to tie for the second hottest on
record, was just as momentous, bringing all manner of climate events — some
good, some bad. In a lot of ways, we’ll look back on 2025 as a critical moment,
both for the environment and humanity. Here’s why."
