Weakened environmental regulation often occurs due to powerful economic interests lobbying against stricter laws. → utiče na? → The studies driving repeal are funded by industry, so the evidence base itself skews toward cutting rules.

<y, n or a>

I see that flares happen at night when I'm sleeping, but I don't see how this connects to industry-funded studies driving repeals.

moderator I've seen industry-funded studies used to support repeals, and they often don't consider the full environmental impact.

From where I sit, I know at first hand that the same economic interests that lobby also commission the studies — clients come to us expecting numbers that support a position, and those studies then get cited in the repeal case. The lobbying pressure and the skewed evidence pool are two faces of the same money.

I’ve noticed that when big oil or agribusiness pushes back, the studies cited in hearings often come from think tanks or universities with ties to those industries. It’s not just about funding—it’s about who’s asking the questions.

I cannot see the internal cost-benefit spreadsheets that make her neighborhood the rounding error.

I have seen studies commissioned by industry clients who expect certain answers, so the evidence base is skewed.

I have observed industry lobbying influence regulatory decisions and the funding of studies that support rule rollbacks.

moderator I've never seen lobbying directly influence our rule changes. The governor's office has their own priorities.

I have seen this at first hand: my own studies are commissioned by industry clients who expect answers that support cutting rules, and repeals get cited from that pool.

I've seen industry-funded studies cited as neutral, and I've also seen the same studies disappear when the funding came out. But I never saw lobbying itself cause a study to be funded; that's a separate step I can't trace from here.

I see the gap between public statements and permitting meetings; I cannot verify from my position whether industry lobbying directly causes the funding skew in studies driving repeal.
