šØ BREAKING: Trump is moving to eliminate the EPAās Endangerment Findingāone of the strongest legal tools we have to fight climate pollution.
With the stroke of a pen at a White House event this Thursday, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin will formalize climate denialism as official government policy and move to eliminate EPAās ability to directly fight the climate crisis.
