The image contains text against a green background. The main text reads, "The EPA Endangerment Finding was repealed recently." Below, an arrow leads to additional text: "What you should know." The bottom left corner shows the logo and name "slipstream.
An informative graphic titled "What IS the Endangerment Finding?" explains that since 2009, the Endangerment Finding has allowed the EPA to regulate greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act. The repeal of this rule makes it more difficult to protect communities from health and environmental risks of greenhouse gas emissions.
A promotional graphic titled "Our work doesn't stop. While we adapt, we're still:" presents a list of actions. Text on a teal background highlights three points: 1. "Connecting our partners with technical expertise to reduce carbon emissions in buildings." 2. "Advancing building codes by working with community leaders, city officials, and utilities to make buildings more efficient and less reliant on fossil fuels." 3. "Expanding research that shows a clear link between cleaner air and better health." Emphasis arrows point to each bullet point.
A promotional graphic titled "Be part of the solution" presents a list of actions. It includes links to explore Slipstream's latest research (slipstream.link/health), stay informed on codes and climate solutions (slipstream.link/codes), see partnerships with communities to reduce building emissions (slipstream.link/buildings), and encourages readers to share this post to spread awareness. The Slipstream logo is at the bottom.
Since 2009, the Endangerment Finding empowered the EPA to regulate emissions under the Clean Air Act & use federal resources to fight climate change. It was repealed Feb 12.
Here's how we will work with our partners to advance solutions that reduce emissions, lower costs & protect human health.
