For decades, federal environmental policy has been driven by a spirit of exaggerated fear put forth by radicals desiring to reshape the United States into some sort of fashionable Marxist society.
Their efforts often reminded me of an important life principal found in the Bible: For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline (2 Timothy 1:6).
The new Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Lee Zeldin, has announced major changes in environmental policy that will move us away from destructive alarmism and into solid science. For example, the EPA seeks to:
- End the federal policies mandating subsidized electric vehicles, which were set to cost the taxpayer over $1 Trillion.
- Eliminate the do-nothing Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program which costs us hundreds of millions of dollars each year and does nothing to improve air quality.
- Prevent catastrophic wildfires by allowing prescribed burns to reduce the amount of fuel in the forests that can allow a small fire to become monstrous.
- Revise ridiculous rules that interpret small rural ditches and seasonal backyard ponds as sensitive eco-systems that must be protected from use or disturbance.
These four examples are just the start of a scientific sanity campaign put forth by a White House administration that applies facts, not fear, and returns Power to the People.
