Trump’s EPA Head Lee Zeldin Needs to Undo the ‘Endangerment Finding’
Trump’s EPA Head Lee Zeldin Needs to Undo the ‘Endangerment Finding’ By H. Sterling Burnett At the direction of an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on his first day back in office, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin was charged with reconsidering whether the EPA’s finding that emissions of carbon dioxide endanger human health, welfare, or […]
NRDC: ‘Average human exhales about 2.3 pounds of carbon dioxide on an average day’ – Human ‘exhale almost three billion tons of carbon dioxide annually’
NRDC: The average human exhales about 2.3 pounds of carbon dioxide on an average day. (The exact quantity depends on your activity level—a person engaged in vigorous exercise produces up to eight times as much CO2 as his sedentary brethren.) Take this number and multiply by a population of 7 billion people, breathing away for 365.25 days per year, and you get an annual CO2 output of 2.94 billion tons. International carbon dioxide emissions from fossil-fuel combustion for 2008 topped 34.7 billion tons. So the human race breathes out about 8.5 percent as much carbon as we burn.
Experts are quick to point out that this figure is meaningless, since human respiration is part of a “closed loop cycle” in which our carbon dioxide output is matched by the carbon dioxide taken in by the wheat, corn, celery, and Ugli fruit that we eat. …
The amount of carbon that a human breathes out is exactly equal to the amount of carbon he takes in minus the amount of carbon that contributes to the person’s body mass. This means that the human body—like all animals—is a very modest carbon-sequestration device.

EPA to Challenge CO2 Endangerment Finding: CO2 is NOT a Pollutant
https://myemail.constantcontact.com/EPA-Killing-the-Endangerment-Finding.html?soid=1101509381788&aid=U-AV2YYl7BI Apparently on the verge of extinction is the odious greenhouse gas rule of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that underpins climate policies stifling economic growth and human flourishing worldwide. Known as the Endangerment Finding, the regulation treats carbon dioxide and certain other gases as pollutants that threaten to overheat the planet with their […]

Bloomberg News: Trump’s EPA to scrap regulating CO2 as a pollutant – ‘Sweeping attack on federal climate regulations’ – Morano: ‘This is the holy grail of the climate agenda’
“This is the holy grail of the climate agenda,” said Marc Morano, who runs the climate-skeptic website ClimateDepot.com. “If you want to permanently cripple the United States climate agenda you have to go at the heart of it. This is the heart of it: the endangerment finding.”
EPA tells White House to strike down ‘endangerment finding’ on climate – Regulates CO2 as pollutant under the Clean Air Act – Reversal to be ‘one of its most consequential steps yet to derail federal climate efforts’
Washington Post: By repealing the endangerment finding, the Trump administration would be taking one of its most consequential steps yet to derail federal climate efforts. In recent days, the administration has also blocked work that is central to international climate research and barred federal scientists and diplomats from attending a major climate event in China.
…
In 2007, the Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling that the EPA has the authority to regulate carbon dioxide, methane and other greenhouse gases as pollutants under the Clean Air Act. In response, the EPA first issued the endangerment finding and then established the first-ever carbon limits for vehicles and power plants.
