Trump’s EPA Revokes Scientific Finding That Backed Climate Policy
4 weeks ago
The Trump administration has revoked a key scientific finding that supported U-S regulations on greenhouse gas emissions. President Trump’s EPA rescinded a 2009 declaration that carbon dioxide and other gases endanger public health. The president hailed the move to roll back climate regulations. He argued that the Obama-era scientific finding “had no basis in fact.” However, the administration’s decision is expected to spur legal challenges.
