Quick Glance: Biden Raises Drilling Costs on Federal Lands, Trump Courts Oil Donors
- The Biden administration has finalized a new rule requiring oil companies to pay at least ten times more for drilling on federal lands to generate more revenue for taxpayers.
- While Trump discusses easing drilling regulations with energy executives, the US is historically pumping a lot of crude oil, complicating regulations for Trump and Biden's climate agenda.
- The rule mandates higher bonds and royalties for fossil fuels on federal lands to better compensate taxpayers and cover the costs of cleaning up abandoned wells.
- In addition to reshaping fossil fuel production on federal lands, the administration has advanced renewable energy development on these tracts and significantly reduced rents and fees for clean energy projects.

Quick Glance: Parents' Struggle Against School Refusal Due to Fear for Children
- Kerry Grantham, a parent from Bray, Co Wicklow, searches the dictionary for the term 'school refusal', but she does not find the definition.

- Parents face significant challenges as their children may be anxious, have an undiagnosed condition, experience bullying, or encounter issues with teachers. Support is often lacking, leading to battles to access alternative services.
- Grantham continues to worry about the future, not just her son's education, but also the developmental impact. When she had to return to work, he would spend time alone in his room. She once confided in a friend that it felt like he had been forgotten by the world.
