End Trump Climate Rollback: Hold Polluters Accountable

President Trump’s recent executive order dismantling the “social cost of carbon” calculation is a direct assault on both environmental protections and the financial well-being of American citizens. By eliminating this critical metric, which quantifies the economic damages associated with carbon emissions, the administration effectively absolves polluting industries from bearing the costs of their environmental impact. This policy shift transfers the financial burden of climate-related disasters—such as intensified hurricanes, wildfires, and health crises—onto individuals and local communities, who are now left to shoulder the escalating expenses alone. This action not only undermines decades of environmental policy but also poses a severe threat to the economic stability of countless Americans. As climate change accelerates, the frequency and severity of natural disasters are projected to increase, leading to billions in damages annually. Without holding industries accountable for their contributions to climate change, these costs will continue to escalate, draining public resources and personal finances. I urge you to oppose this reckless policy and advocate for the reinstatement of the social cost of carbon metric. It is imperative that we hold polluters financially responsible to protect both our environment and the economic future of our citizens.
