Biden EPA Revives Web Page On Climate Change Deleted By Trump

"The return of the website again marks the chasm between the two administrations when it comes to climate policy"

"The Environmental Protection Agency on Thursday relaunched a webpage dedicated to climate change that had gone dark under President Donald Trump, who frequently dismissed the scientific consensus that humans are warming the planet.

The restoration of the climate website comes four years after the Trump administration took down much of the EPA’s digital presence that explained global warming and why it is worth fighting.

To underscore the reversal, EPA Administrator Michael Regan, who was confirmed by the Senate last week, declared in a video message posted on the new website: “Combating climate change, it’s not optional, it’s essential at EPA.”"
