      “The CSDDD is the greatest threat to America’s sovereignty since the fall of the Soviet Union,” the Heartland Institute, a pro-Trump U.S. think tank, tweeted on 31 March.

      The Heartland Institute is one of the world’s leading climate science denial groups. It has helped to draft Donald Trump’s anti-climate policies, which have seen the president pledge to “drill baby drill” for more fossil fuels and once again pull the U.S. out of the flagship 2015 Paris Agreement.

      Over recent months – along with a host of other Trump allies – the Heartland Institute has set its sights on a new target: the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD).

      This vague acronym belies the potentially transformative impact of the new law. In its original form, the CSDDD sought to require large companies – and those in “high risk” sectors – trading in the EU to address human rights and environmental issues in their own operations and in their supply chains. High turnover companies would also have been forced to adopt a plan to align with the Paris Agreement, including setting emissions reduction targets.

      The Heartland Institute and its anti-climate, anti-regulation peers are vocal opponents of the law – and launched an aggressive campaign to water it down, or even to see it scrapped entirely.

      Nothing is undermining the EU climate rules more than the application of these rules themselves. Slowly but steadily we are seeing how some of the biggest bullshit EU regulations, such as Value Chain or Dichotomies are being watered down. The next will be the CO2 ETS once the average European see his prices skyrocket… To become responsible for 3% of the emissions in the world instead of the 6% as for today.

      While China and the US focus on strategic industries such as digitalization or AI, we focus on forbidding gas heating systems and combustion cars… And this is the strategic vision of the EU thanks to Ursula

      Lobbyists may change laws, but they can’t change the facts. Climate change is real and immediate action is needed

      Nobody is forcing US Climate Destroyers to do business in Europe.
      If they want to sell us stuff, they need to play by our rules and stop whining.

      Now that they have destroyed Democracy in the US, all the conservative “think tanks” direct their attention to Europe.

      these people are a literal threat to us

      This statement is gibberish. In what way did the collapse of the USSR negatively affect US sovereignty?
