“A leaked draft study of the electric grid requested by Energy Secretary Rick Perry found that federal energy efficiency policies are in the process of saving U.S. consumers and businesses more than a half trillion dollars.
Meanwhile, the new administration is halting energy efficiency policies and gutting funding for energy efficiency improvements for American homes. Perry’s department is currently being sued by 11 states for stalling efficiency mandates for air conditioners and other high-energy products.”
The GOP clearly do not care about the environment as they are the small minority on the planet that denied man-made, carbon-based global warming.
Having sold their souls for money, the GOP do everything to benefit their fossil-fuel benefactors and do not care about consumers who can save money via conservation.
Recall that just 24% of the electorate actually voted for Trump and the GOP while 49% of dull, bigoted, and unpatriotic Americans failed to vote putting in the GOP and Trump the environmental nightmares that protect polluters.
Notice that all those regulations that the GOP are repealing are rollbacks to environmental and consumer health and financial protections as the GOP has historically NEVER represented the working class.
