Extreme weather is threatening homes and communities. Yet the Trump administration is determined to take us backwards, putting communities at risk and squandering the economic opportunities we have from made-in-America solutions.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what we know about upcoming threats to limits on three major climate protections \u2013 measures to reduce pollution from cars, power plants, and oil and gas facilities:<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Slamming the brakes on clean car progress<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration is poised to finalize a major attack on national and state clean car protections.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/federal-clean-car-standards\">Clean car standards<\/a> are an American success story. In place for nearly a decade, these limits on climate pollution from cars have spurred major improvements in fuel efficiency \u2014 meaning they reduce pollution <em>and<\/em> save drivers money.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s rollback would bring this progress to a screeching halt, dramatically increasing pollution and ceding American clean car innovation and leadership while undermining our competitiveness in the global marketplace. In fact, the administration\u2019s own analysis of their proposed approach found it would result in more than seven billion more tons of climate pollution (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhtsa.gov\/sites\/nhtsa.dot.gov\/files\/documents\/ld_cafe_my2021-26_deis_0.pdf\">pg. S-18<\/a>) and 60,000 lost jobs (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.govinfo.gov\/content\/pkg\/FR-2018-08-24\/pdf\/2018-16820.pdf\">Table VII-5<\/a>). A <a href=\"https:\/\/documentcloud.adobe.com\/link\/track?uri=urn%3Aaaid%3Ascds%3AUS%3A72b78935-2ee6-4341-a986-8631c70f3505\">recent report<\/a> indicates a clean cars rollback may put thousands of lives at risk from increased pollution.<\/p>\n<p>The administration is also poised to attack long-standing state authority to implement protective clean car policies. Fourteen states across the country have committed to an advanced clean car program to protect their citizens \u2014 but the Trump administration wants to shut it down.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s driving this senseless attack? A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2018\/12\/13\/climate\/cafe-emissions-rollback-oil-industry.html\">New York Times expose<\/a> found that oil company interests have played a major role.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Clean Power Plan under threat<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Also planned for this summer: a major attack on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/clean-power-plan-resources\">Clean Power Plan<\/a>, our only national limits on climate pollution from power plants.<\/p>\n<p>EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler has sent a draft rule that would\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/media\/trump-administration-continues-advance-dangerous-rollback-clean-power-plan\">roll back the Clean Power Plan<\/a>\u00a0to the White House for review \u2013 a step that suggests the final rule is close to being finalized and released.<\/p>\n<p>If this final rule looks anything like the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/media\/sham-clean-power-plan-replacement-would-increase-pollution-and-cost-american-lives\">hopelessly flawed and inadequate proposal<\/a>\u00a0that was released last August, it will scrap the\u00a0Clean Power Plan\u00a0in favor of a \u201cdo-nothing\u201d program that could actually\u00a0<em>increase<\/em>\u00a0pollution from inefficient, highly-polluting coal-fired power plants.<\/p>\n<p>Wheeler\u2019s plan contains\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/climate411\/2018\/08\/23\/the-trump-wheeler-polluting-power-plan-five-key-takeaways\/\">no binding limits on carbon pollution<\/a>. EPA\u2019s own analysis of his proposal found it would result in\u00a0massive increases\u00a0in climate pollution and health-harming soot and smog pollution when compared to the Clean Power Plan, causing up to\u00a01,630 additional premature deaths\u00a0from air pollution and tens of thousands of additional childhood asthma attacks\u00a0each year\u00a0by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>Wheeler\u2019s proposed replacement completely fails to consider the rapid reductions in climate pollution that scientists say are necessary to avoid the worst impacts of climate change \u2013 as well as recent clean energy trends that make it possible to cost-effectively achieve far greater and faster reductions in that pollution than the Clean Power Plan originally contemplated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rolling back common-sense methane pollution limits for oil and gas facilities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The oil and gas sector is the largest industrial source of methane, a highly potent greenhouse gas. In 2016, EPA issued protections to limit this pollution, including by requiring that oil and gas facilities swiftly address leaking equipment that creates serious environmental and health risks and wastes valuable energy resources.<\/p>\n<p>Early attempts by the Trump administration to delay implementation of these protections were\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/media\/dc-circuit-refuses-epa-administrator-scott-pruitts-attempt-delay-clean-air-safeguards\">rejected by the courts<\/a>\u00a0or abandoned after a public outcry.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Wheeler last year <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/controlling-air-pollution-oil-and-natural-gas-industry\/proposed-improvements-2016-new-source\">proposed to weaken\u00a0<\/a>these national standards \u2013 a step that would increase methane pollution from new and modified oil and gas facilities\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/sites\/default\/files\/content\/Appendix_G_Omara_A_Technical_Assessment_of_the_Foregone_CH4_Emissions_.pdf\">by more than 40 percent<\/a> \u2014 even though EPA acknowledged that the agency\u2019s own analysis did not support a weakening of the current standards and instead found they are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/sites\/default\/files\/content\/Joint_Environmental_Comments_on_EPAs_Proposed_NSPS_Reconsideration.pdf\">even more cost-effective than anticipated<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration recently underscored that it will move ahead with this rollback, and even with plans to entirely eliminate standards for methane pollution from oil and gas facilities.<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration\u2019s plan is at odds with progress at the state level. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/media\/colorado-breakthrough-cleaner-air-and-safer-climate\">Colorado<\/a> already has methane pollution standards in effect, and under new legislation the state will move ahead with even more protective standards. <u>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/media\/pennsylvania-cracks-down-natural-gas-air-pollution\">Pennsylvania<\/a><\/u>\u00a0has adopted standards, and Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham of\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2019\/02\/04\/no-time-to-waste-what-lies-ahead-in-new-mexico-on-methane-policy\/\">New Mexico<\/a>\u00a0has directed the state to move ahead with controlling methane waste and pollution resulting from oil and gas development.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A trifecta of dangerously bad ideas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration\u2019s plans would weaken or eliminate win-win standards that reduce air and climate pollution while spurring fuel efficiency, low-cost clean energy, and economic opportunity and jobs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Trump administration just released its updated plan of action for rolling back our some of our most important protections against dangerous climate pollution.
