SeanBurlington 🌈 🕊️How much have the fossil fuel lobby spent making people worry about the noise of heat pumps?
They are the same technology as air conditioners - the same pumps and fans.
Yet I have never heard anyone who thinks of getting aircon worry about the noise they make.
DoomsdaysCW#EnvironmentalGroups sue #Trump’s #EPA over repeal of landmark #climate finding
Lawsuit from #health and #EnvironmentalJustice groups challenges the EPA’s rollback of the ‘endangerment finding’

"More than a dozen health and environmental justice non-profits have sued the Environmental Protection Agency over its revocation of the legal determination that underpins US federal climate regulations.
"Filed in Washington DC circuit court, the lawsuit challenges the EPA’s rollback of the '#EndangermentFinding', which states that the buildup of heat-trapping #pollution in the atmosphere endangers #PublicHealth and welfare and has allowed the EPA to limit those emissions from #vehicles, #PowerPlants and other #industrial sources since 2009. The rollback was widely seen as a major setback to US efforts to combat the #ClimateCrisis.
"The suit was brought by the American Public Health Association [#APHA], #AmericanLungAssociation, the #CenterForBiologicalDiversity, the #EnvironmentalDefenseFund, the #NaturalResourcesDefenseCouncil [#NRDC], the #SierraClub and 11 other public health and environmental organizations. The lawsuit was filed by green legal organizations #CleanAirTaskForce and #Earthjustice and it names the EPA and the agency’s administrator, #LeeZeldin, as defendants.
" 'EPA’s repeal of the endangerment finding and #safeguards to limit vehicle emissions marks a complete dereliction of the agency’s mission to protect people’s health and its legal obligation under the #CleanAirAct,' said #GretchenGoldman, president and CEO at the #UnionOfConcernedScientists, another one of the groups behind the lawsuit. 'This shameful and dangerous action by the Trump administration and EPA Administrator Zeldin is rooted in falsehoods not facts and is at complete odds with the public interest and the best available science.'

Trump’s EPA Is Set to Scrap a Landmark Emissions Policy in Deregulatory Push
Among other things, the move would undo the legal basis of the fight against global warming.
RaymondPierreL3“Since at least the 1990s, emissions-intensive industries such as coal and gas and their lobby groups have had an outsized influence on climate policy. This includes groups such as the Minerals Council of Australia, which represents BHP, Rio Tinto and Whitehaven Coal, and Australian Energy Producers, which lobbies on behalf of BP, Shell and Woodside, among others.”

ShamanWhile we are inundated by news about outrageous behaviors of the US Regime's reckless cabinet clowns and their chief every day, let's not forget that the ultimate goal of Project2025 is to destroy #Democracy to enable the #FossilFuelIndustry to continue with their exploitative and toxic business practices that inevitably lead to the total pollution and likely destruction of our planet.
Apparently, ruling over the ruins of Earth is more important than keeping it habitable...
