The following statement may be attributed to Jessie Stolark, executive director of the Carbon Capture Coalition (the Coalition), a non-partisan collaboration of companies, labor unions, and NGOs building support for carbon management policies. This statement provides the Coalition’s reaction to the July 29, 2025, announcement that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed rescinding the landmark 2009 endangerment finding, which provides the basis for regulating greenhouse gas emissions in the United States:
"The facts are clear – greenhouse gas emissions are the main contributing factor to a rapidly changing climate, and a majority of American voters want their elected officials to address global warming in a pragmatic way. Regardless of the administration’s recent steps to undo America’s ability to regulate greenhouse gas emissions at the federal level, countries that can produce cleaner materials and energy have a global economic edge.
World markets tell a clear story — globally, consumers want clean energy and materials, and carbon management technologies are an essential platform for their production. Carbon capture, removal, transport, reuse, and storage are already helping to sustain American industries in markets that increasingly demand cleaner electricity and materials, without sacrificing economic growth or American jobs.

A group of diverse, bipartisan lawmakers from around the country continues to recognize the critical role that carbon management technologies will play in reducing emissions, bolstering US energy production, and supporting American workers. Today, thanks to the supportive policy framework driven by long-standing, bipartisan support, there are more than 270 announced and operating projects nationwide and in various emitting sectors. Around 130 of these projects are in advanced construction.
However, the world is catching up, with supportive policies developing or now in place in several regions around the globe aimed at deploying these technologies. This is evident in the number of announced and operational carbon management projects worldwide. China has 25 announced carbon capture projects, Canada has 58, and the United Kingdom has 65.
That’s why the Coalition has and will continue to be laser-focused on working with lawmakers from both parties to ensure that the US enacts and implements the necessary portfolio of supportive policies to catalyze the deployment of carbon management technologies nationwide. Carbon management is vital to ensure the sustained competitiveness of the US energy and industrial sectors, and to provide corresponding jobs and regional economic benefits, while driving down US emissions.
On the heels of the successful preservation of the foundational 45Q tax credit, we now have turned our attention to: 1) ensuring that the US has the appropriate permitting framework in place to support project deployment; 2) advancing the available regulatory framework; and 3) urging the administration to continue implementing congressionally directed appropriations for key carbon management research, development, deployment, and demonstration programs."
The Carbon Capture Coalition is a nonpartisan collaboration of more than 100 companies, unions, conservation and environmental policy organizations, building federal policy support to enable economywide, commercial-scale deployment of carbon management technologies. This includes carbon capture, removal, transport, reuse, and storage from industrial facilities, power plants, and ambient air. Members of the Coalition work together to advocate for the full portfolio of policies required to commercialize a domestic carbon management sector and inform policymakers and stakeholders on the essential role this suite of technologies must play in achieving these shared objectives.
