    #endangerment finding, which followed a #SupremeCourt ruling #EPA could regulate #greenhousegases…underpinning for all rules aimed at cutting the pollution…worsening the #climatecrisis.

    #Trump, who has called #ClimateChange a “hoax”, said in an economy-focused speech on Sept 5 that he wants to "rescind all unspent funds under the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act" if elected.

    #Biden admin spending #climate cash fast, as #Trump threatens to cancel it

    Trump has said he would cancel all unspent funds from President Joe Biden's signature #ClimateLaw if he wins the presidential #election on Nov 5.

    But the vast majority of grants will be spent by the time a new president takes office in Jan, & targeting what remains would be a massive #legal challenge.
