"[C]limate change is just a very, very expensive form of tax."

"I believe in climate change caused by human beings. What I'm skeptical about is the glib notion that it means the end of the world as we know it."

"The clock is no longer just ticking, it is banging."

"There is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change."

"The time for seeking global solutions [to climate change] is running out."

"The climate crisis is the existential threat. That's not hyperbole; it's a fact."

"[W]e are killing our planet."

Climate change is "above all, an existential crisis."

"Climate change is one of the greatest challenges mankind faces."

"If we don't take action, the collapse of our civilisations and the extinction of much of the natural world is on the horizon."

"Humanity is on thin ice — and that ice is melting fast."

"We haven't yet exceeded the bounds of viable human civilisation, but we're getting close."

Is Climate Change an Existential Threat?

Zeldin, who has been reported as a potential replacement for former Attorney General Pam Bondi, used his speech to celebrate the February repeal of the 2009 endangerment finding, which had provided the legal basis for federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions.

More than 160 environmental and public health organizations called for Zeldin to resign or be fired, while 24 states have filed a federal lawsuit challenging the EPA's repeal of the endangerment finding.

Heartland Institute President James Taylor opened the conference by claiming increased carbon dioxide concentrations would be beneficial, a position that contradicts the scientific consensus that greenhouse gases are warming the planet.

The Heartland Institute has received funding from oil companies including Shell and ExxonMobil and was a contributor to Project 2025. The group has previously sent materials questioning climate science to thousands of schools across the country.

Myron Ebell, who led Trump's EPA transition team during the first term, said Zeldin could be positioning himself to run for national office or be selected as a vice-presidential candidate, noting that EPA chiefs have historically not pursued elected office.
