Mexico’s President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum, an energy engineer and physicist by training, has published widely on the energy transition and greenhouse gas emissions as an environmental scientist. She has co-authored a U.N. climate report, and as Mexico City mayor, she installed solar power on a city market and electrified public transportation routes.

Now, the country waits to see whether her environmental pedigree will translate into action as president. Sheinbaum’s predecessor, outgoing President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, cut funding for environmental agencies and let Mexico’s international climate commitments languish. He backed more domestic oil production and the construction of a new refinery.


Sheinbaum remained his loyal ally; López Obrador paved the way for her to ascend to Mexico’s highest office. But on energy and climate issues, while his protegé strikes a different tone, she remains committed to continued use of fossil fuels.

You've got some issues with green power.

In Mexico they always say the same tired old thing: that the outgoing president will control the new incoming one if they are of the same party. And Sheinbaum is a member of the Morena Party.
And by the second year of the six year term they always seem to wonder why the new president is NOT following the same agenda as the previous president, or at least what the person complaining normally says.

Morena is an acronym, but the word Morena in Mexico generally means a woman of Indian ancestry.
