"Greens Prepare For Battle With Trump"

"Environmental groups are shifting into battle mode, preparing for inevitable policy fights with President-elect Donald Trump, his administration and the next GOP Congress.

The leaders of the largest U.S. green groups told reporters Wednesday that it is a disappointing day for the country and the world after Trump’s stunning election. But they say they have little time to wallow. Instead, they’re digging up strategies from other fights with Republicans, including those with former President George W. Bush and congressional Republicans of the 1990s.

“We are girding for a fight, wherever it may come, in the courts, in the Congress, through the executive branch,” Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune said.0"
