Good news! For the past 50 years or so environmentalism has become a pseudo religion or fetish! Environmental protection has been well established and practiced for several decades in Western countries.
Thus, less environmental bureaucracy is probably justified!
Plus, I suspect that other agencies and departments of the federal government have taken over some of the environmental tasks of the EPA. Thus, there is a suspicion of duplication of efforts.
"Trump’s EPA budget plan for 2026 includes a draconian 50% cut from the previous year and the lowest budget proposal, when adjusted for inflation, since Reagan. Staff cuts in just the first six months of the second Trump administration put the agency’s total employment at 12,448, down from 16,155 in January. ..."
Notice, the 46th President has already cut the EPA budget to the lowest level since President Carter.
