Restrictions on coal fired power plants is the first that comes to mind: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trumps-epa-to-ease-emissions-re...

Would you like more?

edit: No? One example was enough? But I had so much more. :(

I'd like a lot more examples. I'd also like a concise description that indicates how the changes will roll the US back to the intense pollution problems that existed 30+ years ago.

The example you reference is modifying rules put in place just a few years ago, so at best it's an obviously mediocre example.

Why would I alter my comment to be in tune with what you want when I was responding to this:

>Exactly what environmental protection is Trump rolling back?

You said you had a lot more examples to provide, you pretended that nobody wanted them. I do. So let's have all those examples.

I asked for a concise description, I didn't ask you to modify your comment. Surely the environmental protection roll-backs will cause pollution problems (even if it's not of the scale that existed 30+ years ago). If it's too much to ask that you explain how your examples will cause meaningful environmental damage, and you don't want to provide such an elaboration, I understand.
