Source: Living on Earth Date: November 26, 2016 Writer: Adam Wernick Starting in January 2017, Republicans will control the White House and both branches of Congress, which can vastly have a different outlook for the US on issues related to the environment, global warming and energy. He vowed to abolish the Environmental Protection Agency. Republicans hold the majority in both houses of Congress and will control all of the committee chairmanship. Republican members of Congress have expressed strong opposition to any action on climate change. Trump vowed to abolish the Environmental Protection Agency. However, he said that he'll 'refocus the Environmental Protection Agency on a core mission of ensuring clean air, and clean, safe drinking water for all Americans. His main issue is that every week they come out with new regulations. I understand this is hard especially for many Americans that own business's to keep up with these new regulations on a weekly bases. However, the reason for these new weekly regulations is that the rate of carbon emissions, and global warming is increasing in a much faster rate. Most Americans are ignorant and ignore this fact, which is why regulations should keep on being made.
