How to Read This Project

Environment shows one of the clearest policy-direction patterns in the dataset: extensive climate, pollution, public-land, and regulatory rollbacks, alongside some conservation and public-lands actions. Claims are grouped by policy area and impact direction. Many claims are still under review and will later include source links, confidence levels, cross-references, and notes about competing interpretations.
