Enironmental Protection Agency getting out of the practice of environmental protection
By 
The Environmental Protection Agency has decided to revoke a key scientific finding it published 16 years ago that six greenhouse gases are a threat to public health and must be regulated under the Clean Air Act.
Known as the “endangerment finding,” it is the 2009 scientific basis for which the EPA has regulated greenhouse gas emissions from new motor vehicles, as well as other sources of climate pollution, but Administrator Lee Zeldin announced on a conservative podcast Tuesday that the agency is revoking the finding, calling it, “the largest deregulatory action in the history of America.”
Since it was signed by then-Administrator Lisa Jackson in 2009, the finding has been used by the EPA to regulate sources of climate change-causing pollution from cars, power plants and other sources of transportation like planes, as well as oil and gas operations.
During his appearance on the “Ruthless Podcast,” Zeldin criticized the endangerment finding, saying it put too many regulatory restrictions on transportation and stationary sources of greenhouse gas pollution.
“There are people, who in the name of climate change, are willing to bankrupt the country,” he said.
Zeldin also said regulating climate pollution costs Americans too much money and by revoking the finding and subsequent regulations, “it’s projected to save Americans over a trillion dollars.”
But the EPA’s own regulatory impact report says limiting emissions for cars and trucks is expected to generate more than $2.1 trillion in net benefits over the next 30 years, including $820 billion in fuel savings and $1.8 trillion in public health and climate benefits.
