EPA's Climate Policy Shift: A Step Backwards
California, Claremont, USASat Aug 02 2025
The EPA's recent proposal to undo a crucial climate policy is raising eyebrows.
- 2009: The EPA officially declared greenhouse gases a threat to health and the environment.
- Now: They are considering reversing this decision, which could have severe consequences for the planet.
The Cost of Clean Energy vs. Dirty Energy
Some argue that clean energy is too expensive, but this overlooks the long-term damages caused by dirty energy:
- Extreme weather events
- Health issues from pollution
- Mass migrations due to climate change
The most critical cost? The well-being of all life on Earth.
The Future of Energy
Clean energy is inevitable. As coal and oil become harder and more expensive to extract, the transition is unavoidable. Why not accelerate the process and minimize further damage?
The EPA's Role
The EPA's mission is to protect the environment. Why are they considering a move that could do more harm than good? It's time for them to act decisively before it's too late.
A Matter of Accountability
This isn't just about science or policy. It's about:
- The future of our planet and its inhabitants.
- Holding accountable those who knew the risks of carbon emissions since the 1980s but ignored them for profit.
- Ensuring the EPA remains true to its mission and does not betray public trust.
