Trump revokes US scientific basis for climate change regulations

The US has revoked the “endangerment finding” that supports regulations on greenhouse gas emissions, marking a significant rollback of environmental policies by President Trump. The finding, established under Obama, declares that greenhouse gases threaten public health. Trump has called climate change a hoax and celebrated the repeal as the largest deregulatory action in US history. The move is expected to face legal challenges and has been criticized by environmental groups as a major setback in addressing climate change.
