Seriously? Fuck these people. This is important information for me as a consumer. Even if I didn't care about the planet, which I do, I'm gonna care about the size of my power bill. This move helps nobody.

E.P.A. Plans to Shut Down the Energy Star Program
May 7, 2025 00:46They are not trying to help anybody. This is about blowing up the system. It doesn’t matter that it’s sensible or beneficial.
That is not the framework they are working from.
I am fucking exhausted from this shit.
The program evidently shaved $500bn off of consumer utility bills over its life, so this, like so much else, needs to be framed as a tax increase on consumers.
It's all spite. The people who don't like Trump care about the environment, so nyah, nyah. That's all this is.
A lot of green energy tax credits, refunds, and rebates require showing Energy Star certified equipment. This is local, state, and federal.
Correction: it helps huge energy corporations and appliance manufacturers make more profits.
At the expense of consumers and our planet.
it’s all about making the wealthy wealthier, the millionaires become billionaires and the billionaires become trillionaires and so on because greed apparently has no limit
this is a basic service. how are we supposed to evaluate appliances?
A real pet peeve of mine is that the environmentalist movement has moved away from talking about individual choices when addressing climate. The fact of the matter is that energy efficiency is one of the most cost effective and actionable ways to reduce carbon emissions. It is low hanging fruit.
Because why? Is Energy Efficient viewed as Woke or DEI or Little Girls & Dolls drivel, 19 yr old DOGEr's just decided it's only something older folks care about and it's not "cost effective" so slash it?
What could possibly be a reason for this?
Well, That’s not entirely true. It helps the energy providers make more money. 😡
Any safety net is gone.
DJT is hellbent on burning it all down. I'm hoping Mal a Lardass gets a direct hit by a Cat 5 soon. He needs to feel it.
Obv it helps those who own manufacturing and energy production/distribution. That’s the point!

They are just stupid.
Energy saving must be so woke for these fucknuggets
The idea here is to consume more fossil energy?
Helps the rich get richer.
cheetolini—here to break things, good or bad
Trump continues to use the USA as his toilet, shitting on and destroying anything good for the American people.
Environmental Pollution agency who the fuck does this?? I guess they all want to fuck their children’s future for a fucking old old leach
an unusual break from the placation most companies have embraced in the first few months of Trump’s term.
Maybe not pushing back and putting profits before people was eventually going to have adverse consequences because trump doesn't gaf about anything.
Sadly it helps the manufacturers to start making & selling us $hit products again like they did in the 70’s & 80’s
It will generally seem like the world is more coherent if you tack a phrase such as the following onto the beginning of each news story:
Putin's "useful idiot" today advanced the plot to destroy the US from within as...
So progressive 🙄
What part of Making America Great again does eliminating the Energy Star program enhance? The answer is none.
This is just another felon move to appease big business by removing oversight. Can't wait for this MAGAt clown to be gone. Permanently.
Getting ready for American Made 😂 for only twice the price 🎉
What the?? I don't even understand who benefits from cutting this. I suppose the rich again, but I can't even keep up with everything that is being taken away from us.
So, if Russia doesn’t have it, we should cancel it?
100000%
Great. More winning.
Whatever, commie.
Saving money is woke.
