The Trump administration will revoke an
environmental finding today that underpins many U.S. climate regulations. The
Endangerment Finding is the 2009 scientific conclusion that six greenhouse
gases qualify as air pollution and harm public health—and can thus be regulated
under the 1970 Clean Air Act. The White House press secretary formally
announced the plan Tuesday, saying it would amount to the “largest deregulatory
action in American history.”
“While China drives an
electric revolution in the global auto industry, the United States has
retreated, doubling down on old technologies and shunning competition in new
ones that are quickly conquering the rest of the world…A smarter strategy would
be to take on the challenge, rather than cede the future of the world’s largest
manufacturing sector to China.”--David
M. Hart in an Expert Take.
The House of Representatives passed a resolution

have given the United States “Economic and National Security.”
Iran’s president said yesterday that the country
is willing to open its nuclear sites for inspections to verify it is not

flows.” He is expected to visit oil fields in the country today.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said
yesterday that the country would only hold elections after a ceasefire with

commercial airspace was temporarily closed Tuesday over El Paso, Texas, near

aviation officials were concerned that Customs and Border Protection’s testing
of an anti-drone laser posed risks to local aircraft.
