Description
The United States has spent decades removing pollution from its air, but
the impacts of climate change could erase that progress and expose
millions of Americans to poor air quality, according to a new report
released by climate risk group First Street Foundation. POLITICO’s Zack
Colman breaks down who will be impacted by worsening air quality. Plus,
a federal judge questioned why FERC is declining to assess the
significance of greenhouse gas emissions generated by new fossil fuel
facilities.
