EPA blocked climate progress by obstructing Hawai‘i's clean energy transition. | The EPA’s action undermines Hawai‘i’s climate progress by preventing the retirement of polluting power plants, directly conflicting with SDG 7 (clean energy) and SDG 13 (climate action). This decision prioritizes short-term energy stability over long-term environmental and public health benefits, with significant negative implications for planetary boundaries.
