Efforts by US President Donald Trump's administration to roll back environmental rules in order to boost domestic energy production could lead to a reversal of the progress made in curbing greenhouse gas emissions, according to a recent report from the International Energy Agency (IEA).
The report noted that the so-called shale revolution has made the US the world's top oil and gas producer as well as a major energy exporter, with the current administration expounding an agenda of "energy dominance" to maximise energy production and benefit from increased exports.
