EESI opposes the Environmental Protection Agency’s attempt to reject its own science-based finding that greenhouse gases are air pollutants that it must regulate,” said EESI President Daniel Bresette. “A rejection of the endangerment finding—established almost two decades ago after a Supreme Court ruling—would put human life and property at risk, cause untold damage to nature, and smother innovation at a time when the United States needs more clean energy not less. This would be more than a step in the wrong direction; it would be an irresponsible and unacceptable action by a federal agency established by Congress to protect the environment and the people who live in it.”
