WASHINGTON, Feb 12 (Reuters) - The administration of President Donald Trump on Thursday announced the repeal of a scientific finding that greenhouse gas emissions endanger human health, and eliminated federal tailpipe emissions standards for cars and trucks.
It is the most sweeping climate change policy rollback by the administration to date, after a string of regulatory cuts and other moves intended to unfetter fossil fuel development and stymie the rollout of clean energy.
"Under the process just completed by the EPA, we are officially terminating the so-called endangerment finding, a disastrous Obama-era policy that severely damaged the American auto industry and drove up prices for American consumers," Trump said, saying it was the biggest deregulatory action in U.S. history.
The Environmental Protection Agency said in a press release the endangerment finding had relied on an incorrect interpretation of federal clean air laws meant to protect Americans from pollutants that do harm through local or regional exposure, not through warming the global climate.
"This flawed legal theory took the agency outside the scope of its statutory authority in multiple respects," it said.
Trump announced the repeal beside EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin and White House budget director Russ Vought, who has long sought to revoke the finding and was a key architect of conservative policy blueprint Project 2025.
Trump has said he believes climate change is a "con job", and has withdrawn the United States from the Paris Agreement, leaving the world’s largest historic contributor to global warming out of international efforts to combat it. He has also signed legislation killing Biden-era tax credits aimed at accelerating deployment of electric cars and renewable energy.

We’re all going to fucking die.

Thank the Lord. Maybe we can have inexpensive cars again.

Hey remember those images of China where everything was covered in smog and everyone had to wear masks? That's your future under this retardation. Enjoy your poisoned air.
>>
>>1488840
the law still regulates vehicles so that they dont produce the emissions that cause smog. You fucking retard.
>>
>>1488854
Yeah how much longer is that gonna last now that you've got Trump's EPA declaring that the smog doesn't actually do anything?
>>
>>1488855
You said a dumb thing, no need to make up dumb hypotheticals to distract from the extremely dumb thing you did. Just stop posting.

>Guys there's no way they'd get rid of the laws against emissions
>Even though they eliminated the basis those laws have and thus they wouldn't survive any form of legal challenge

Read the article again (slowly) and think about what an insanely stupid thing you have said.

IDK seems a whole lot like those emission laws aren't in effect anymore.

So, have you sold that red Tesla you bought from Elongated Muskrat in front of the White House yet, Trump?
Al those Cybertrucks bought by Trumptards. Are liberals being 'owned' yet, miggers?

The cartoonishly evil thing is forcing older cars off the road because they emit too much carbon or whatever. Older cars that are inherently better than the new because there's no computerization meaning freedom to tinker and they have a lot more more range than gay EVs.
>>
>>1488840
Nah, I'll be fine. I remember LA's smog warnings and that was defeated mostly by catalytic converters. There's no need to sell the US to Ameren to burn coal so you can charge your car.
>>
>>1488816
I'm curious why it took them a year to do this.
>>
>>1488930
>gay EVs
Musk must be gay for that responsible for his fortune not using internal combustion engines, then.
And Trump is gay for buying one from him in front of the White House
>EVs
>gay
Thanks for admitting that Musk & Trump are homos, then. And that's before one mentions all the Cybertrucks bought by MAGAts to 'own the libs'. Musk, Trump & Trumptards are gay by owning themselves in owning an EV. You said it, I didn't.
>>
>>1488930
>too much carbon or whatever
You have no fucking idea what you're talking about.
>>
>>1488971
No he doesn't. Older cars were forced off the road by Obama via Cash for Clunkers which offered a subsidy to have the old vehicle destroyed in the name of environmentalism when in fact, the subsidy was to help the car industry which was just bailed out under Bush.
The same auto industry which has fled the US to avoid unions.
So, essentially all the old cool American cars were destroyed, and the US got nothing.
Thanks Obama.

>some of the earliest EVs were made in the early 1900s by American companies. And were so well built & ultra-reliable, they're still running to this day. And are still road legal
'You're welcome' -Obama
>motors for the cars that made him ultra-rich are made in China. Even a battery Gigafactory in China, at the bargain price of Xitter denied the right to exist in that country. Musk says 'Thanks'
'You're welcome' - Xi Jinping
The first operational Maglev train in China, and a few years before Japan's Chuo Shinkansen in 2030. Eric Laithwaite approves. How long before PRC has the first fully operational fusion reactor, thus mass produce them? France had theirs going for 22 minutes recently.

>>1488976
my car burns 2 quarts of oil a week but it only smokes a little when I press the gas, still fuckers get so picky when I start my car up so Im glad Trump put his foot down on this issue I'm tired of all the whining fucking naggers

>>1488976
Cash for clunkers was a massive mistake
