Tue, 2023-04-18 09:39 — mike kraft
EU lawmakers adopt deals on emissions trading, carbon tax European Union lawmakers have adopted on Tuesday key pieces of a package designed to achieve the EU’s climate goals of cutting emissions of the gases that cause global warming by 55% over this decade. European Parliament members approved deals to reform the 27-nation bloc’s emissions trading system and to create a new hardship fund for vulnerable households and small businesses affected by higher fuel costs arising from the new measures. The emissions trading system covers about 40% of the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions.

Restoring Environmental Rules Rolled Back by Trump Could Take Years

Fri, 2021-01-22 12:26 — mike kraft

WASHINGTON — President Biden, vowing to restore environmental protections frayed over the past four years, has ordered the review of more than 100 rules and regulations on air, water, public lands, endangered species and climate change that were weakened or rolled back by his predecessor.

But legal experts warn that it could take two to three years — and in some cases, most of Mr. Biden’s term — to put many of the old rules back in place.

As Election Nears, Trump Makes a Final Push Against Climate Science

Wed, 2020-10-28 19:50 — mike kraft

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration has recently removed the chief scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the nation’s premier scientific agency, installed new political staff who have questioned accepted facts about climate change and imposed stricter controls on communications at the agency.

The moves threaten to stifle a major source of objective United States government information about climate change that underpins federal rules on greenhouse gas emissions and offer an indication of the direction the agency will take if President Trump wins re-election.
