Texan who could lead Trump’s EPA wants to end renewable energy subsidies

WASHINGTON

 

A Texan under consideration to lead the Environmental Protection Agency wants to end subsidies for renewable energy and said it’s not clear how much human activity contributes to global warming.

 

Kathleen Hartnett White, the head of a conservative Texas think tank, confirmed to McClatchy that she is being considered to lead the EPA after meeting with President-elect Donald Trump on Monday.

 

The EPA is one of Trump’s biggest targets, and White, whose record shows an interest in cutting regulations, said she is under official consideration for the agency’s top job.

“Trump asked me all kinds of different questions on energy, environmental regulations and the EPA,” White said in an interview. “It was a very pleasant, very easy meeting.”

White described her meeting with Trump as a “conversation” and that they went back-and-forth after she stated her positions and ideas on how the EPA should be run.

 

(Oklahoma attorney general Scott Pruitt is also under consideration to lead the EPA and met with Trump earlier this week.)

She led the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality – the second-largest environmental regulatory agency in the world after the EPA , years under Rick Perry.
