Moron. As if ANY policies lessening pollution and carbon emissions could ever be bad for the planet...


"Cities are flooding and forests are burning, but the Trump administration is ignoring both science and the law. By rescinding its own conclusion on the dangers of greenhouse gas pollution, called the “endangerment finding,” the EPA will revoke its authority to control emissions from cars and trucks, the nation’s biggest contributor to climate change. And the EPA is setting the stage to undo restrictions on other climate polluters next, including power plants and oil and gas producers.
The Trump administration is ignoring the scientific consensus, mountains of evidence, and communities across the country that have been devastated by stronger hurricanes, bigger wildfires, and unnatural disasters. We’re already preparing to sue them to stop this unprecedented attack on our planet."

The "endangerment finding" was done during Obama's administration, dumbass.

That 2009 determination is called the endangerment finding, and most people have never heard of it. But it has played an enormous role in environmental regulations affecting cars, power plants and more.

EPA Releases Proposal to Rescind Obama-Era Endangerment Finding, Regulations that Paved the Way for Electric Vehicle Mandates

Might still be quite a wait, if companies deem it wise to not change much until they see who wins in 2028. Otherwise, they could spend yet more money reversing things back again. Since Biden kept a few of Trump's tariffs on China, it's not a done deal that a Dem administration would restore old regulations. But still feels like expecting ducks to not rush to a nearby pond when released from their pen after two months.
