On Feb. 12, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) overturned its own “endangerment finding” ( [link removed] ) — established after years of scientific analysis — which concluded that greenhouse gas pollution is a danger to human health and requires regulation under the Clean Air Act.
With the finding repealed, EPA is no longer legally obligated to regulate hazardous greenhouse gases from sources like cars and power plants.
This isn’t just bad news for the climate. Warming caused by unchecked GHG emissions affects everything from farming to healthcare and insurance costs. Overturning the finding will only intensify many challenges that American families and businesses face today.
