Abstract

The article focuses on the legal challenge by more than 20 states against the Trump administration's rollback of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) 2009 "endangerment finding," which determined that greenhouse gases threaten human health and supported federal climate regulations. States including California, New York, and Massachusetts filed a petition in the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, joined by nearly 20 counties, cities, and territories, primarily led by Democratic governors. The EPA rescinded the endangerment finding and related vehicle greenhouse gas standards in February as part of a broader revision of climate policies. State officials argue the rollback undermines federal responsibility to address climate threats, while the EPA characterizes the lawsuit as politically motivated. [Extracted from the article]
