Down and dirty

摘要

"YOU'RE going back to work," Donald Trump told miners on March 28th. Gathered in the Environmental Protection Agency (epa), they saw him sign an executive order to review and revise Barack Obama's flagship energy policy, the Clean Power Plan. Among other measures, the order also requests the reversal of a moratorium on coal-leasing on federal lands and dispenses with rules to curb methane emissions from oil and gas sites. It rolls back internal rules for government agencies on how to tot up the social costs of environmental damage, too.
