Endangerment Finding, out!
Just the News (7/29/25) reports: "Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin on Tuesday announced the long-anticipated proposal to repeal the Obama-era 'endangerment finding.' The rule determined that greenhouse gas emissions posed a risk to public health, which gave the EPA the authority to regulate those emissions as a pollutant. In a statement, Zeldin said the rule had been used to justify over $1 trillion in regulations, including the Biden-Harris administration’s EV mandates. Its repeal, according to the EPA, would save Americans $54 billion in annual costs... Tom Pyle, president of the American Energy Alliance, said the EPA has used the finding to deny Americans access to reliable, affordable energy, as well as transportation choice. 'It has reshaped investment and infrastructure to our country’s detriment and has been used as a vehicle to push a political agenda,' Pyle said."

"Climate policy has been steered into a political cul-de-sac by bad science and bad policy. The bad science can be found in the UN-FCCC’s definition of climate change that is at odds with the scientifically-accurate definition of climate change of the IPCC. The bad policy results from the use of global average temperatures as a proxy for human flourishing, making cost-benefit analyses seem unnecessary or even unhelpful to the political cause."
