Statement From Ken Berlin, President And CEO Of The Climate Reality Project, On The Trump Administration’s Affordable Clean Energy Rule

"The Trump Administration's 'Affordable Clean Energy' rule is just the opposite of what its name implies. Overturning America’s Clean Power Plan and replacing it with this irresponsible alternative is neither clean nor affordable. It will be costly for Americans in their healthcare bills and their lives. It will empower polluters and subsidize their profits over the clean energy solutions that the market is already moving toward, and which Americans overwhelmingly support. The good news is that the clean energy transition is already underway across the country, led by state and local governments, businesses, and people working to transition to cleaner, safer energy choices."
