Trump Admin to Revoke Climate Change Regulations | JQJO

The EPA, under the Trump administration, plans to revoke the 2009 endangerment finding, eliminating the legal basis for greenhouse gas emission limits. This move, described as the largest deregulatory action in US history, would allow the elimination of regulations on cars, power plants, and other sources. While industries previously opposed the finding, their current response is muted, possibly due to changed economic factors making clean energy more viable and cost-effective. The decision could lead to increased electricity costs, hinder clean energy development, and potentially damage US competitiveness in the global market for electric vehicles.
