Awesome: EPA Ditching Some Climate (scam) Rules

This is, quite frankly, one of the reasons the GOP needs to get its act together to make sure they win the White House in 2028, to make sure all these rollbacks of climate cult regulations and such are not reinstated

EPA announces rollback of climate pollution rules for power plants

The Environmental Protection Agency is repealing rules that curb greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. The action, announced Monday at the G20 “Energy Abundance Ministerial” in Houston, eliminates limits set by the Biden administration in 2024.

“The Trump Administration has come in to protect American energy and to make sure you can afford to keep the lights on,” said EPA Administrator Zeldin, in a release. “Americans will see a decrease in electricity prices, but this is just the beginning.”

The rule change is the latest in a back-and-forth between Democratic and Republican administrations over whether or not to limit power plants’ greenhouse gas pollution, the main cause of climate change.

Power plants are the second largest sources of emissions in the U.S. behind transportation.

And, yet, all those climate cult states have not just ended their use of those power plants. It’s almost like the Warmists would rather have “dirty” energy that save the planet.

The Trump administration stressed the importance of coal and natural gas in powering the electric grid, which is seeing high demand from artificial intelligence and data center growth. Coal accounts for 16 percent of the country’s electricity, while natural gas accounts for 40 percent, according to federal data.

“During periods of peak electricity demand, coal and natural gas continue to play a critical role in keeping the lights on,” said Secretary of Energy Chris Wright. “Today’s announcement will help ensure reliable electricity generation.”

Look, I’m not a big fan of coal, it is dirty (not from CO2) and bad environmentally, but, the US needs energy. If Warmists would have let us start building next-gen nuclear power plants 20 years ago we’d be doing great!
