The Trump administration announced plans to repeal a range of environmental regulations affecting air and water quality, notably the E.P.A.'s endangerment finding on greenhouse gases. In a recent video, E.P.A. Administrator Lee Zeldin emphasized lowering costs related to vehicles and energy instead of focusing on environmental protection, a departure from the agency's foundational mission established in 1970. This shift raises concerns about the future of regulations essential for controlling pollution and safeguarding public health. By eliminating these regulations, the administration aims to support economic interests over ecological sustainability.
The Trump administration's recent pronouncements mark a significant rollback of vital environmental regulations, ignoring the E.P.A.’s core mission of protecting public health and the environment.
E.P.A. Administrator Lee Zeldin reshaped the agency's focus away from environmental protection, aiming instead to lower costs of cars, heating, and business operations.
