North Carolina lawmakers urge the EPA to maintain climate protections amid concerns about reversing policies affecting state health and safety.
Quiver AI Summary
North Carolina Representatives Deborah Ross, Alma Adams, and Valerie Foushee have urged the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to retain the 2009 Endangerment Finding, which mandates protection against climate change impacts. They expressed concerns over reports suggesting the EPA may eliminate this finding, which they believe could endanger public health and safety in North Carolina.
The lawmakers highlighted the state's vulnerability to severe weather events, citing nine significant incidents in 2024 that incurred over $104 billion in damages. They warned that removing the Endangerment Finding would exacerbate issues such as rising sea levels and extreme heat, posing further risks to the region's economy and environment.
In their communication, they stated, "Denying the danger cannot change the facts," stressing that reversing the Endangerment Finding would allow increased pollution and weaken other environmental protections. The full letter to the EPA is available on Representative Ross's official website.
