Seven months into his second term, President Donald Trump has bulldozed nearly the entire mountain of green policies enacted by Democrats at the behest of their progressive counterparts. Critics long claimed “The Green New Deal” was not only costly, but ineffective.
The Obama-era endangerment finding, based on Section 202(a) of the Clean Air Act, designated carbon dioxide, methane and four other greenhouse gases as threats to public health and welfare.

He criticized the 2009 finding, enacted in 2010 under former President Barack Obama, for imposing expensive regulations on industries like transportation and aviation, which strained the economy.
The decision is emblematic of Trump’s deregulation priorities and his executive order to reassess the finding’s legal basis and reduce regulatory burdens to boost American energy production.
