Le ministre de l’intérieur américain a notamment annoncé le rétablissement d’un programme permettant d’exploiter le pétrole et le gaz dans l’ensemble de l’Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, une aire protégée qui s’étend sur plus de 630 000 hectares.
The Trump administration announced a series of energy projects in Alaska, including opening up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska to oil and gas exploitation. These initiatives aim to reverse environmental protections implemented under the Obama administration and expedite energy project permits. Other measures include reinstating the "Ambler Road" project and reviving a gas pipeline project to transport gas from northern Alaska to a southern port for export.
