Join EDF Action experts as we dive into the latest policy solutions and roadblacks facing grid modernization and clean energy adoption nationwide!

Denying what's in black and white won't undo the damage the Trump administration has caused by (unlawfully) cancelling clean energy projects. Americans across the country are feeling the pain.

"Not now. Not ever." Many House Republicans voted ‘yes’ on three separate bills to weaken the Clean Air Act and allow more toxic pollution. Rep. Adelita Grijalva said it right: We will not stand for putting polluters’ profits over our right to breathe.

Something isn’t adding up…

The Trump administration’s EPA now estimates the value of a human life at $0. They’re claiming to save money—when you’re actually paying with your wallet, health and safety.

The Trump administration's proposed budget would slash clean drinking water funds by 90%. Last week, Sen. Lisa Murkowski, an Alaska Republican, asked EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin why cut "the one thing we all agree on"?

By the EPA's own estimates, U.S. water infrastructure needs $1.3 trillion in improvements over the next 20 years. Instead, the federal administration's proposed budget would CUT clean water funds by 90%. The Green Agenda's Kayla Shannon and guest Melodie Marsh discuss what these cuts really mean for communities, like Flint, Michigan, where access to safe drinking water is already limited.

For years, the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) has kept our families and communities safe by evaluating and reducing health risks from chemicals in everyday products like cleaners, detergents, and plastic. Now Republicans in Congress are looking to weaken these widely popular protections and undermine the EPA's ability protect us from harmful chemicals. Join EDF Action and community advocates to learn more about what we're seeing from Congress, how it could impact communities across the country, and what you can do to protect these standards that keep our homes, schools, and workplaces safe!

We’ll let you in on a little secret…

We had the pleasure of meeting up with climate advocate Saad Amer for some spicy takes that climate deniers don’t want you to know!

The Trump administration is handing out free passes to polluters, like this smelter in Miami, AZ. These passes allow billion-dollar companies to skip out on low-cost solutions that reduce lead, arsenic and other toxics in the plant's emissions.

EDF General Counsel Vickie Patton spoke with Arizona's Family about how this pollution is impacting the local community.
