EPA is siding with polluters by illegally delaying methane rules for oil and gas.

EPA’s own data shows that a 1-year delay results in the emissions of 3.8M tons of methane and 36K tons of toxic air pollution – at the expense of public health and the climate.

Congress has long endorsed a comprehensive energy strategy with a clear federal role powered by the Department of Energy for research, development, & deployment.

But recent cuts create market uncertainty & threaten U.S. energy leadership & innovation.

EPA estimated its strengthened soot standard would avoid 800,000 cases of asthma symptoms, 2,000 hospital visits, and 4,500 premature deaths.

Despite the public health benefits, EPA has asked the D.C. Circuit to strike down this important update 👉 www.catf.us/2025/11/epa-...

Superhot rock #geothermal has the potential to generate up to 10x the energy output for a single well when compared to conventional geothermal systems.

But technical gaps must be bridged before superhot rock geothermal can be available anywhere it is needed.
