Federal judge rules EPA unlawfully clawed back $250 million for solar energy initiatives across Texas
A federal judge this week ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency unlawfully clawed back more than $250 million for solar energy initiatives across Texas, siding with a legal challenge brought by Harris County last year. The ‘Solar for All‘ program was intended to fund clean energy initiatives for low-income households across the state, create job growth and establish community hubs powered by solar energy reserves in the event of power outages. The program was backed by a $7 billion clean energy fund signed by former President Joe Biden. Harris County was awarded $54 million for the solar program in 2024. That money was rescinded in August last year when the county received a termination letter from the EPA that claimed to end the initiative. The Harris County Attorney’s Office brought the legal challenge in October of 2025, after raising doubts about the legality of the termination notice.

HHS, EPA to Collaborate on Glyphosate Safety Research
The MAHA movement and pesticide critics have been particularly critical of the EPA’s actions related to pesticides and forever chemicals. The Trump administration has attempted to keep MAHA voters engaged through efforts to boost regenerative agriculture. The MOU got some positive attention from MAHA advocates, but others are less convinced it will bring meaningful change. By keeping the EPA the sole authority on registration decisions, Bill Freese, director of the Center for Food Safety Science, said in a statement he is skeptical the MOU will change anything, given the EPA’s history. He added the new collaboration will likely take years, and is unlikely to make an impact in the ongoing review...

EPA Awards Record $82 Million to Improve Water Quality and Restore Habitat Across San ...
Contact Information Ben Leers ([email protected]) 415-947-4279 SAN FRANCISCO (Sept. 22, 2026) – Today, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing its largest-ever investment in the San Francisco Bay and surrounding watersheds through grant funding under the agency’s San Francisco Bay Program. EPA is awarding more than $82 million to fund 20 projects that support major water quality improvements and habitat restoration across the Bay, advancing EPA’s mission to provide clean water for every American. “EPA’s San Francisco Bay Program puts federal funding into action to improve water quality, reduce pollution, and restore natural habitat around this iconic American body of water,” said EPA Pacific Southwest Regional Administrator Mike Martucci. “Through the long-term investments we are unveiling today, EPA and local partners will work together to safeguard the health of the Bay for the benefit of our local communities.” The following organizations received San Francisco Bay Program grants and will be starting their projects in 2026. 2026 San Francisco Bay Program Projects Association of Bay Area Governments ($5.6 million) – This funding will support habitat restoration at Strip Marsh East along Highway 37 in San Pablo Bay by reusing sediment produced from excavating new tidal channels and lowering berms.

EPA rollback of power plant emissions worries environmental advocates
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently announced it's repealing rules that limit greenhouse gas emissions power plants. The agency has finalized plans to remove much of a 2024 rule aimed at reducing carbon dioxide emissions from plants that burn coal and natural gas. Scientists say carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere and contributes to climate change. Some requirements remain, including efficiency standards for new natural gas turbines; however, the EPA is proposing to remove those remaining greenhouse gas standards. The Trump administration said the changes will lower utility costs and help meet growing electricity demand. Pam Mackey-Taylor, director of the Iowa chapter of the Sierra Club, called the decision “terribly disappointing.” “Climate change is real,” Mackey-Taylor said. “We need the ability to solve climate change, and the best way to do that is to reduce coal plant emissions, and the EPA is going the wrong direction.” Growing demand for electricity Mackey-Taylor worries that demand for electricity, including from data centers, could give utilities another reason to keep burning coal. “They’re searching for any kind of power they can get, so that's a real risk to Iowans,” Mackey-Taylor said. She also worries about the effects of coal plant pollution...

EPA says repealing power plant emissions rules will save billions - but its estimate leaves out health and climate costs
The Trump administration is repealing federal rules that limit greenhouse gas emissions from coal- and gas-fired power plants. It says the changes will make electricity cheaper for Americans. What consumers pay will depend partly on the cost of keeping older plants running compared with building and operating new ones. Even if the changes make electricity cheaper, the administration’s headline savings estimate leaves out the health and climate costs of additional pollution. The Environmental Protection Agency also repealed emissions standards for equipment to capture and store carbon dioxide at coal-fired plants undergoing major modifications and for new gas-fired turbines that run frequently. That equipment keeps much of the carbon dioxide emitted from burning coal and gas out of the atmosphere, where it would contribute to climate change. The agency is trying to prevent future administrations from restoring the previous rules, by arguing that Section 111 of the Clean Air Act does not authorize the agency to regulate power plant greenhouse gas emissions to address climate change. As an economist who studies energy and the environment, I look beyond the direct compliance costs of meeting emissions limits to assess the full costs and benefits to Americans. Keeping aging coal plants open, building...
