While this sucks for Climate Change, it also sucks for peoples health.

It's really moving costs from companies complying with regulations on pollution to people dealing with the health effects of pollution, and with the American health care funding model, it's basically another move to tax poor people and let wealthy people off.

Look at asthma rates vs. air quality. It gas disproportionately effected lower income communities for decades. So many other factors too.
