**Buhari's Counterpart in the US Rolls Back Climate Change Regulations** In a move that has sent shockwaves across the globe, President Donald Trump's administration in the United States has revoked a key scientific finding that has long been the backbone of the country's efforts to combat climate change. This decision is seen as one of the most aggressive steps taken by the Trump administration to roll back environmental regulations since President Trump's second term began. The revocation of the "endangerment finding" is a significant blow to efforts to regulate greenhouse gas emissions, which are widely recognized as a major contributor to the alarming rate of climate change. The endangerment finding, established during the presidency of Barack Obama, served as the legal foundation for nearly all climate regulations under the Clean Air Act. It declared that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases pose a significant threat to public health and welfare. However, President Trump has consistently dismissed climate change as a "hoax" and a "con job," and has argued that the endangerment finding had no basis in fact or law. Trump's decision to rescind the finding has significant implications for Nigeria and the rest of Africa. The continent is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, including rising temperatures, more frequent natural disasters, and altered rainfall patterns. If the US were to withdraw from the Paris Agreement, as threatened by President Trump, it could embolden other countries to follow suit, potentially undermining global efforts to combat climate change. Environmental groups in the US have vowed to challenge the decision in court, arguing that it is a major setback for efforts to address climate change. They point out that the evidence supporting the endangerment finding has grown stronger in the 17 years since it was approved. As the US continues to grapple with the implications of this decision, Nigeria and other African countries must remain vigilant and continue to push for climate action. The decision by the Trump administration to rescind the endangerment finding also raises questions about the role of science in policy-making. In Nigeria, we have seen the importance of science in informing policy decisions, particularly in areas such as healthcare and agriculture. As we continue to grapple with the challenges of climate change, it is essential that we prioritize the use of science and evidence-based decision-making. Ultimately, the revocation of the endangerment finding is a reminder of the complex and often contentious nature of climate change policy. While there are valid arguments on both sides, the evidence is clear: climate change is real, and it
