DeSantis hasn't been as horrible on environmental issues as on culture war stuff. It is possible that he would push some modest progress on the environment while kicking up a cloud of culture war issues that keeps the base distracted.

What I worry about is that he'd set up programs that penalize or ignore blue state disasters--for example no Federal help for wildfires in western Blue states, but lots of help for hurricanes and floods in Texas and Florida.
