WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump will not derail progress made in fighting climate change and creating clean-energy jobs, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency insisted on Monday in arguing "the inevitability of our clean energy future is bigger than any one person or nation."

EPA chief Gina McCarthy said the world is "in a spectacularly different place today than we were when President (Barack) Obama took office," citing new environmental rules and actions to help create thousands of jobs in renewable energy such as wind and solar power.

Better make sure she turns over all of her private “business related” emails or have her ass locked up along with every other soon to be director or staffer who engaged in this practice.

Put them all on notice now and have someone stake out all of the shredding rooms to report on them.

I hear they are making a last minute push to close down Everglades Swamp Tour operators.

There was no progress under Obama. Just a mess that needs to be cleaned up.

Maybe the EPA has a use for all of the ammunition they stockpiled during the last administration?

No. the EPA can be run sanely and do its job under adult supervision. We need to prove that. If after 4 years it can’t be done then axe it.

Quite true. One can't undo what does not exist.

The word “won’t” is a subjective word, based on a feeling, in this case ‘hope’. The word “can’t” is a definite word, based upon facts, not opinions. I see that EPA Administrator, Gina McCarthy, has learned from Democrat luminary, Bill Clinton, the ability to parse and twist language to benefit ‘the cause!’

However, “won’t” can’t TRUMP Trump, so she will learn that can’t will trump won’t! Too bad, so sad, you set your efforts on sand and the tide is coming in now - oops!

It shouldn’t be hard to do away with the EPA. Just transfer it into some new name with new regulations. Then close the doors on the EPA.

Was the EPA created by Nixon? With an Executive Order? Tell me how difficult it would be to sign another EO in, like, what? 10 seconds?
