This change makes it easier to roll back protections, endangers people's health, and increases environmental damage.

Join us in telling the EPA that public health benefits must be included in regulatory impact analyses! 

That means benefits like fewer asthma attacks, fewer hospital visits, and fewer premature deaths will be treated as worth $0.

By making these numbers zero, regulatory decisions will focus almost entirely on the cost to industry, and not people's health.

For decades, public health benefits have played an important role when weighing the costs and benefits of setting regulations for ozone and fine particle pollution (PM2.5).

But that's no longer the case. The EPA has decided not to count the economic value of lives saved when setting these rules.

#ClimateAction of the Day: Tell the EPA that public health must count in pollution rules.

Because this is where we are now ⤵️

Fact-Checking Donald Trump’s Speech at Davos In his speech at Davos, Trump made some easily disprovable claims about wind farms, among other things.

Claiming China has no wind farms, when it leads the world in wind power, requires being so unbothered by facts that… ah, ok.

If signed into law, NOAA and NASA will get $1.67 and $5.63 billion more than was proposed in the administration’s budget request, and programs slated for elimination, like NASA’s satellite program, will actually get a funding boost. 👀🙌🏼

Congress passes bill to fund U.S. science agencies, rebuffing Trump's requested cuts The Senate voted to provide billions more to NASA, NOAA and the National Science Foundation than the president had asked for.

Congress just approved funding for key scientific agencies AND is proposing billions more for the National Science Foundation, NOAA, and NASA!

Evidence-based decision making still has a pulse. 👏🏼👏🏼

For the first time since the early 1970s, coal‑powered electricity fell in both China and India in the same year, and record clean energy growth helped fill the gap!

This is a big deal. When two of the world’s largest energy users start shifting away from coal, it shows what’s possible at scale. 🌎

But recently seven governors signed a petition requesting nationwide monitoring of microplastics in drinking water.

Safe drinking water shouldn’t be optional. Tell your governor to step up too! (takes less than a minute)

Once microplastics enter our bodies, they can disrupt cells, trigger inflammation, and have been linked to heart disease, reproductive harm, cancer risks, and more.

Right now, we've no established drinking water standard that monitors the level of microplastic contamination.

Microplastics are tiny pieces of plastic that never fully break down. Instead, they accumulate -- in our water, our food, and eventually in our organs.

One of the main ways they enter our bodies? The water we drink ⤵️

Introducing the PPA: Polluters Protection Agency.

Stingless bees from the Amazon granted legal rights in world first Planet’s oldest bee species and primary pollinators were under threat from deforestation and competition from ‘killer bees’

Native stingless bees from the Peruvian Amazon have been granted legal rights! These remarkable pollinators help pollinate nearly 80% of the rainforest’s plant life 🧡 🐝

If deep breaths are your whole personality right now — welcome to the club.

Polluters first. America last.

We need to protect science that protects us.

Tell your federal representatives: Take immediate action to protect the National Center for Atmospheric Research! (takes less than a minute)

The Trump administration is moving to dismantle NCAR — a decision that puts lives, livelihoods, and public safety at risk.

Let's be clear:
NCAR is a world-class research institution.
It isn’t a hub of “climate alarmism.”
It’s life-saving science.

The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) helps predict extreme weather, protect farmers, and help communities & businesses prepare for severe disruptions. It even partners with airlines to keep flights safe.

And now, it's at risk.

Today's Action - Climate Action Now

When science is protected, everyone benefits. Cleaner air and water. Safer communities. Smarter climate solutions.

Urge your House Representative to co-sponsor and pass the bipartisan Scientific Integrity Act!
www.climateactionnow.com/go/zoc67bbk-...

If passed, this bill would require federal agencies to adopt & enforce strong scientific integrity policies, ensuring federal scientists can:

- conduct & share research freely
- speak the truth without fear of censorship
- keep public policy grounded in the best available science
