Thomas Steyer states EPA cannot make fossil fuels competitive or deny climate change
Steyer calls EPA approach detached

Thomas Steyer has reiterated concerns about the Environmental Protection Agency's approach to energy policy in the U.S. In a recent statement, Steyer criticized the EPA's regulatory actions, emphasizing that the agency is unable to alter the economic competitiveness of fossil fuels or disregard the realities of climate change. Steyer described the agency's stance as being 'utterly removed from reality' and contended that such actions hinder the pursuit of a better future. He labeled the EPA's current approach as 'ridiculous,' highlighting ongoing tensions between climate advocates and U.S. federal regulators over fossil fuel policies.

Steyer has previously focused on policy initiatives beyond energy, including his support for California’s SB 79 on affordable and sustainable housing. He has also emphasized the importance of transparent ballot counting practices during U.S. elections. These efforts reflect his ongoing engagement with public policy across housing, democracy, and climate issues.
