Daily briefing: Genetically modified pig-organ transplant trial gets green light
Briefly

Research indicates that the Trump administration's energy and climate policies could have severe consequences for the US by 2030, causing a rise of 2 to 4 billion tonnes in carbon dioxide emissions, significant job losses, and thousands of premature deaths due to air pollution. Additionally, energy prices are expected to increase amid reduced investments in renewable energy. Simultaneously, the CDC's order mandating the withdrawal of research papers containing terms related to gender and sexuality has raised concerns over the future of public health research focusing on vulnerable populations, potentially leading to a loss of vital knowledge in health disparities.
Researchers' models indicate that Trump administration's energy and climate policies could result in 2 billion-4 billion tonnes more carbon dioxide emissions and 4 million net jobs lost by 2030.
Market forces may favor green energy despite Trump's policies, indicating that businesses and local governments might resist abandoning climate investments approved in the Inflation Reduction Act.
The CDC has mandated withdrawal of researcher papers under review, prohibiting mention of terms regarding gender and sexuality, raising concerns about the future of health inequities research.
Ayden Scheim warns that the withdrawal of papers could lead to the disappearance of crucial research focused on health inequities for women and LGBTQ+ communities.
