  • Trump Administration Moves to Revoke EPA Climate Endangerment Finding Amid Global Climate Action Push

    Trump Administration Moves to Revoke EPA Climate Endangerment Finding Amid Global Climate Action Push
    Mar 7 2026
    In the United States this week, climate change has been at the center of a fierce policy and science clash in Washington. The Los Angeles Times reports that the Trump administration is preparing a rule to revoke the Environmental Protection Agency endangerment finding, the 2009 scientific determination that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare. According to the article, this move would undercut the legal basis for federal limits on pollution from cars, power plants, and other major sources, even as Americans face more deadly floods, extreme heat waves, and catastrophic wildfires. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine recently reaffirmed that the science behind the original finding is accurate and now backed by stronger evidence, describing the harms from human caused greenhouse gases as beyond scientific dispute.

    Environmental groups and many health experts warn that reversing the endangerment finding could increase climate pollution, health care costs, and thousands of avoidable premature deaths in the United States. Lawyers point out that courts, including the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit in twenty twenty three, have repeatedly upheld the finding, and any repeal would trigger years of legal challenges. Meanwhile, Euronews Green is tracking an expanding list of federal rollbacks of climate and environmental protections in early twenty twenty six, describing them as a direct assault on climate progress and noting that these steps run counter to the rapid growth of clean energy at home and abroad.

    Across the wider world, climate impacts and diplomacy are moving in the opposite direction from United States deregulation. The United Nations and other international bodies highlight that global temperatures continue to rise, ocean acidification has breached key planetary boundaries, and climate fueled extremes are disrupting communities from North America to Asia and the Mediterranean. According to coverage of upcoming climate events compiled by the Global Landscapes Forum and the United Nations, governments and scientists are preparing for a series of major gatherings in twenty twenty six, including climate and energy summits in New York and London, a United Nations convention to combat desertification in Mongolia, and the next United Nations climate change conference, known as Conference of the Parties thirty one, in Turkey. These meetings are focused on transitioning away from fossil fuels, restoring degraded land, and tripling finance for adaptation, reflecting a global pattern of intensifying efforts to curb emissions even as some United States policies move in the opposite direction.

  • Trump Administration Dismantles US Climate Policies: EPA Revokes Endangerment Finding, Emissions Rise

    Trump Administration Dismantles US Climate Policies: EPA Revokes Endangerment Finding, Emissions Rise
    Mar 4 2026
    The Trump administration is moving aggressively to dismantle key United States climate policies, with the Environmental Protection Agency set to revoke the 2009 endangerment finding this week, according to a White House official cited by the Los Angeles Times. This Obama-era declaration established that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare, forming the legal basis for regulations on vehicle emissions, power plants, and other sources driving planetary warming. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt described the actions as the most significant deregulatory steps in history to boost American energy dominance and lower costs. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, who has criticized past efforts to combat climate change as economically ruinous, is leading the charge, calling the original finding one of the most damaging decisions in modern history.

    These moves build on a year of rollbacks since Trump's return, including Congress eliminating most tax credits for solar and wind energy last summer, as reported by Le Monde. United States greenhouse gas emissions rose 2.4 percent in 2025 after two years of decline, driven by a cold winter, surging electricity demand, and revived coal use, with power sector emissions up 3.8 percent for the second straight year, per Rhodium Group estimates. Federal approvals for coal, oil, and gas projects have accelerated while renewable permits slowed, canceling billions in clean energy investments and threatening over 100,000 jobs, according to Climate Power analysis. The Rhodium Group now projects emissions cuts of only 26 to 35 percent by 2035 from 2005 levels, far below Paris Agreement targets of 61 to 66 percent.

    Adding to the retreat, the United States is withdrawing from the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, effective January 20, and has ceased publishing national emissions inventories, undermining tracking efforts, Le Monde notes. Environmental groups like the Environmental Defense Fund decry this as the biggest attack on federal climate action ever, warning of more pollution, higher health and fuel costs, and preventable deaths amid intensifying disasters like floods, heat waves, and wildfires. Courts have pushed back, with federal judges in Washington and Virginia recently restarting three offshore wind farms, including one off New York by Equinor. Globally, eyes turn to upcoming events like the World Ocean Summit in Montreal on March 4 and 5, and preparations for COP31 in Antalya, Turkey, in November, highlighting a widening United States divergence from international momentum.

  • Trump Administration Repeals Landmark Climate Rules: EPA's Historic Deregulation Sparks Legal Battles and Environmental Backlash

    Trump Administration Repeals Landmark Climate Rules: EPA's Historic Deregulation Sparks Legal Battles and Environmental Backlash
    Feb 28 2026
    In the past week, the United States has seen major shifts in climate policy under President Donald Trump. During his State of the Union address on February 27, Trump doubled down on his drill baby drill agenda, touting support for the fossil fuel industry and attacking the green new scam, according to Carbon Briefs DeBriefed report. He renewed focus on electricity affordability amid rising costs. Earlier that week, the Trump administration watered down limits on mercury pollution from aging coal fired power plants, as reported by the Financial Times, though experts note coal continues to decline against cheaper natural gas and renewables.

    The Environmental Protection Agency took its boldest step yet. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced the single largest deregulatory action in US history, repealing the Obama era 2009 greenhouse gas endangerment finding and all related federal emission standards for vehicles and engines from model years 2012 through 2027 and beyond, saving taxpayers over 1.3 trillion dollars, per the EPAs official release. The agency argued that even eliminating all US vehicle emissions would have no material impact on global climate through 2100, dismantling what it called legal fictions from prior administrations.

    This repeal, finalized around February 12 but highlighted this week, sparked immediate backlash. Seventeen environmental groups, including the Environmental Defense Fund, Natural Resources Defense Council, American Lung Association, and Center for Biological Diversity, sued the EPA over removing this landmark finding that enabled federal greenhouse gas limits, as detailed by The Guardian and the Clean Air Task Force. Critics like attorney Frank Sturges called it unlawful, citing reinforced scientific evidence from the nonpartisan National Academies.

    The US Supreme Court also agreed to hear a major lawsuit from the oil industry aiming to block dozens of state level climate suits blaming firms for global warming, reported the New York Times. Meanwhile, the administration seeks to permanently kill a global carbon levy on shipping at the United Nations, with Panama reversing support after US pressure, per Politico and The Guardian.

    Worldwide, floods killed at least 53 in Brazils Minas Gerais state after 170 millimeters of rain in hours, per CNN Brasil, highlighting extreme weather patterns. Emerging insights show US policy rolling back federal climate guardrails while states and groups fight back, potentially deepening divides as renewables grow despite rhetoric. These moves signal a fossil fuel push amid ongoing global emission challenges.[349 words]
