I'm not sure Trump got the memo on that. Most energy analysts don't seem convinced that a man who thinks climate change is a hoax is not going to hamper the clean energy transition.
Trump’s administration is expected to hinder the renewable energy transition in various ways. One anticipated step will be gutting Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), a cornerstone of recent American climate policy incentivizing renewable energy development. Alongside this, there may be an increase in oil and gas leases on federal lands, a shift that will directly benefit the fossil fuel industry. Such actions would slow growth of the U.S. clean energy sector, placing the nation at a competitive disadvantage as other regions, notably China and Europe, surge ahead in low-carbon technology, green investment, and renewable capacity.

Two more articles you might like, particularly the map of resources in Nick Dearden's article.
Problem is that the 'Plunder of Africa' could not take place without the approval of the men in charge of the countries involved, most of them millionaire or by now Billionaires who send their children to elite schools in the UK, France, the US and so on. Africa is not populated by sheep, it's Governing classes know exactly what they are doing, just look at Angola, which was once described as an 'African Marxist' country around the same time it was inviting Shell, BP and Exxon to extract its oil wealth, which it then sold to the wicked USA.
Maybe Africa needs a new generation of Marxists, you know, like proper ones, the revolutionary type...?

I'm going to do my part for climate change. It's been soooo cold here that I'm going to fire up my convertible with the 480 CI engine that has NO "smog control" devices, 10.5:1 compression ratio, runs on premium fuel plus some 110 Octane race gas, and bum around the area this weekend.

Maybe you can also get some whale skin hubcaps and throw your styrofoam containers out the window.
