Item: Speaking at the United Nations Summit on Climate Change on September 23, 2014, President Obama claimed that the “climate is changing faster than our efforts to address it. The alarm bells keep ringing. Our citizens keep marching. We cannot pretend we do not hear them.”
Item: Gina McCarthy, the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, in a statement issued on November 26, 2014, said: “Bringing ozone pollution standards in line with the latest science will clean up our air, improve access to crucial air quality information, and protect those most at-risk.”
The administrator went on to say: “Fulfilling the promise of the Clean Air Act has always been EPA’s responsibility. Our health protections have endured because they’re engineered to evolve, so that’s why we’re using the latest science to update air quality standards — to fulfill the law’s promise, and defend each and every person’s right to clean air.”
