Climate Cuts Under Trump Threaten Nonprofits’ Survival: Funding Gaps Loom

Nonprofit organizations working tirelessly to address the climate crisis are facing a dire situation. Drastic cuts to federal funding under the Trump administration have left these groups struggling to maintain their vital work in clean energy, research, and advocacy.

Foundations Struggle to Fill the Void

While some foundations have stepped up to provide support, they acknowledge that they cannot single-handedly fill the massive funding gaps created by these cuts. This precarious financial landscape raises serious concerns about the long-term viability of many nonprofit climate initiatives.

The Impact on Clean Energy and Research

The funding cuts have significantly hampered clean energy research and development projects. Many nonprofits rely on federal grants to support these efforts, and the sudden drop in available funds has forced them to scale back operations or even abandon promising projects altogether.
