Climate Change, EPA Rollbacks & Why Clean Energy Just Makes Sense

from Just a Guy in a Truck · host Just a Guy

After a long weekend (and a broken toe), I’m back — and today I wanted to dig deeper into climate change.The administration just rolled back the EPA’s long-standing authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions — a rule that’s guided climate policy for nearly two decades. What’s strange is… no one was really asking for this. Not automakers. Not even oil companies looking for long-term stability.So who benefits?We talk about deregulation, fuel economy standards, electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, and why clean energy isn’t just about “believing” in climate change — it’s about economics, public health, and long-term planning.Even if you took climate change off the table entirely, why wouldn’t we want cleaner air, lower fuel costs, and more energy independence?Just a regular guy in a (gas-powered) truck trying to make sense of EPA rollbacks, electric trucks, and why the future probably belongs to clean energy.
