Natural Resources Defense Council

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) is a non-profit environmental advocacy group. Recent news focuses on their opposition to the Trump administration's environmental policies, particularly concerning climate change. NRDC, along with other environmental organizations, is suing the EPA over the revocation of the "endangerment finding," which underpins federal climate regulations. This lawsuit challenges the EPA's rollback of greenhouse gas standards for vehicles and its decision to stop calculating the health and economic benefits of curbing air pollution. The NRDC views these actions as detrimental to public health and the environment, accusing the administration of prioritizing business interests over environmental protection. Their actions are relevant as they represent a significant challenge to the administration's environmental policies and aim to preserve existing climate regulations.
