2/ Greenline Insights’ independent & nonpartisan study analyzed the impacts to consumers if Ciattarelli pulls out of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), repeals standards for electric vehicles & appliances, & kills offshore wind.

It’s bad.

Bottom of the 9th. Two outs. Clean energy at bat. ⚾🔥

Trump and Congress have tried to bench American-made clean energy.

At @nrdcactionfund.org we’re not giving up. Yesterday’s home runs won’t win today’s ball games—but if we want to make it to the World Series, we’re stepping up to the plate.

At least the sycophantic Lee Zeldin at EPA admitted it had nothing to do with the merits or law, and resulted from Trump dictates, when Zeldin answered the same question with: “Tte president is not a fan of wind.”
When I asked the Assistant Secretary of the Interior why he stopped Revolution Wind, he couldn’t answer the question.

This is insane. Watch:

Scientists are pushing back on the Trump administration’s latest climate report, calling it misleading and full of errors. The administration wants to use the report to justify rolling back limits on climate pollution and reversing decades of progress.

A Trump administration proposal to reverse a landmark finding that climate change is dangerous to the public relies heavily on a report from the Department of Energy that dozens of scientists say is flawed. The Associated Press surveyed scientists for their views. Here are some key takeaways:

This is, of course, nonsense and garbage from a man who has made climate denialism the official religion of the U.S. EPA.
