Trump’s EPA revokes scientific finding that underpinned US fight against climate change
Do you hear that sound? It’s the sound of rejoicing as sanity is restored to the American economy. And probably also the sound of a million climate activists crying as their funding disappears.
“The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressive move by the Republican president to roll back climate regulations.”
“President Donald Trump called the move “the single largest deregulatory action in American history, by far,” while EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin called the endangerment finding “the Holy Grail of federal regulatory overreach.””
He’s right. There is such a thing as too much winning. But it’s too late I’m addicted to it now.
“Trump called the endangerment finding “one of the greatest scams in history,” claiming that it “had no basis in fact” or law. “On the contrary, over the generations, fossil fuels have saved millions of lives and lifted billions of people out of poverty all over the world,” Trump said at a White House ceremony.”
Can’t you just feel the leftist rage boil?
“The endangerment finding “led to trillions of dollars in regulations that strangled entire sectors of the United States economy, including the American auto industry,” Zeldin said. “The Obama and Biden administrations used it to steamroll into existence a left-wing wish list of costly climate policies, electric vehicle mandates and other requirements that assaulted consumer choice and affordability.”
The endangerment finding and the regulations based on it “didn’t just regulate emissions, it regulated and targeted the American dream. And now the endangerment finding is hereby eliminated,” Zeldin said.”
This will have so many effects on lowering the cost of living for Americans. Gas prices and fuel prices will decline as regulation will be lifted over many parts of the production cycle. Automobile prices will decline as all the regulation can be stripped out of the process for selling cars with regular gasoline engines. When Trump ends the CO2 emissions requirements for power plants, the cost of electricity will also decline. Well, except in places like California and New England where they punish fossil fuel plants just for the sake of virtue signaling. This is despite the fact that places like New York State have recently admitted that their citizens just cannot afford to pay the energy bills their state has mandated in the absurd goal of eliminating everything but “renewables.”
And most importantly, Barack Obama will be sad. This monstrous law was his baby. He foisted it upon us and trillions of dollars were wasted in trying to fulfill the insane dream of powering the world on solar panels and windmills. Hopefully this revocation will help revive this country and educate people about how a modern industrial civilization works. It’s based on power density and not virtue signaling. Boy, I can’t wait for summer to fire up the grill and broil some rib-eyes. Man, those are good.
