Endangerment Finding Repealed

 

WASHINGTON, D.C., February 12 – President Donald Trump and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin today announced that the EPA was repealing a rule known as the Endangerment Finding that seeks to limit carbon dioxide emissions from motor vehicles. This validates a decade of work by the CO2 Coalition and others to refute irrational regulation of a harmless gas necessary for life.    The CO2 Coalition has worked tirelessly to provide the science, facts and data that were used to overturn this economically destructive regulation that was enacted on the basis of junk science and disinformation. Thousands of scientists and researchers stood with us for the truth.   We believe EPA’s action – and other reforms of rules covering power plants – could ultimately end foolish public policy that has wastefully diverted trillions of dollars to address a manufactured climate emergency and away from efforts that could have otherwise benefited people.
