Tracking the Damages of Regulatory Rollbacks

Institute for Policy Integrity, New York University School of Law

"This tracker lists the estimated effects—including prospective effects for consumers and public health—of the repeals of environmental and energy regulations that the second Trump Administration has initiated since January 2025.

How Science Journalists Worldwide Are Fighting White House Health Misinformation

"Earlier this year, US President Donald Trump warned pregnant women to stop taking Tylenol – a brand name for paracetamol – or risk giving their children autism. ... Vaccines have been a common target, with Trump falsely correlating vaccines with autism and RFK Jr challenging the safety of both the COVID-19 vaccine and the DTP vaccine. With so many attacks on health and science, what are specialised reporters and editors doing to counter this barrage of disinformation from the most powerful man on Earth? Do these messages have an impact around the world? And what are the challenges posed to the journalists covering these beats? To answer these questions and more, I spoke with five editors of science and health publications in the United States, South Africa, Kenya and Peru."

The Role of Emotion in Climate Change Communication

"To understand the role of emotion in climate change communication, researchers often study the effects of messages that attempt to evoke different emotional responses — for example, comparing the message effects of a humorous vs. a fearful or hopeful message. These types of studies, however, do not isolate emotional content from emotional delivery. For example, if we test different videos explaining the effects of climate change on extreme weather and one is humorous and one is fearful, the messages will differ in content (i.e., the words and information included) and delivery (i.e., how the message is communicated), so it is often unclear which factors make the message emotionally compelling. To investigate this, we [YPCCC] designed a study (N = 3,463) where we independently varied emotional content and emotional delivery." The study was published Oct. 7, 2025 in the journal Environmental Communication.
