We've been tracking the attacks on public lands since January 20, 2025, and while this short episode only covers a few of the main events, hundreds of other things have happened specifically targeting our public lands and waters.
This video only features events through August 12, 2025. The 200th day of Trump 2.0 occurred on August 7th.
