Well, that's the whole point of environmentalism. Make governments answerable to something higher than individual countries; make them answerable to the Earth itself.

Hmmm...

It sounds exactly like the federal government, establishing a state religion.

Isn't that kinda....against the law?

Pull the plug; the EPA is without legitimate purpose.

Well, that’s what Obama meant when he said back in 2009, “We are going to restore science to its rightful place”, namely as a false religion like the Soviets did.

Abolish the EPA.
Defund it.
What ever it takes to get rid of these vermin.
Just do it, President Trump.

And most importantly, sell off all the real estate they occupy. It a roadblock to it’s ever being resurrected!

Carbon dioxide is a clean byproduct of combustion. Among other byproducts, like water.

“How the hell are we goign to get ‘left behind’ exactly?”

Excellent question/point. Even if “they” invent a perpetual motion clean energy machine, we here in the U.S. will be able to buy the technology once it is proven, won't we? Or are we to adopt the xenophobic perspective that “they”, in other parts of the world, will get clean energy first and then hatefully refuse to share it with the U.S. That's not a very nice way to portray the intentions our international neighbors.

Science tells us that there is no bigger threat to American progress and prosperity than the threat of global climate change..

Damn, I must have missed that email. Must have gone into the junk folder (where it belongs.)

If there is an archetypal ‘non-essential’ group of federal employees, it’s the EPA.
Close them down, record how it was done, then move on to the next one.
