Rachel Feltman reports on troubling changes proposed by EPA head Lee Zeldin to reduce or eliminate existing environmental regulations. This includes reconsidering past findings that recognize greenhouse gases as harmful pollutants. The decision follows a Supreme Court ruling and previous EPA determinations linking these emissions to public health risks. With Zeldin's announcement, major sectors like power and automotive could face reduced regulations, raising concerns about the implications for climate change and environmental safety as evidence against greenhouse gases strengthens.
Last Wednesday the head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Lee Zeldin, announced that the agency plans to get rid of or weaken many environmental rules and policies.
Zeldin announced that the administration plans to reconsider these findings regarding greenhouse gases, indicating a potential shift in EPA's stance on climate-related issues.
