The ongoing government shutdown has sent uneven shock waves through federal climate and energy agencies, leaving operations frozen, offices short-staffed and priorities in limbo. POLITICO’s Alex Guillén breaks down the shutdown’s impact on those agencies and how it compares to previous shutdowns. Plus, the United States and Australia announced an agreement on Monday to jointly invest in the mining and processing of critical minerals.
