EPAs Shift on Air Quality Standards Sparks Controversy: A year after rejecting West Virginias pollution plan, the EPA approved it under Trump, sparking outrage from conservation groups.

While emissions have dropped and visibility improved, the new approach lets polluting plants off the hook, ignoring needed upgrades. Lawsuits are ongoing, and the EPA is considering rollbacks to thirty-one environmental rules, including this one. The fight over cleaner air in Americas wild places heats up, balancing energy needs against the hard-won views hikers now enjoy.
