The Current State of Climate Regulation: Revisiting the Endangerment Finding

The Current State of Climate Regulation: Revisiting the Endangerment Finding promotional image

The EPA’s proposal to reconsider its long-standing Endangerment Finding raises major questions about the future of climate and public health protections in the United States. In this discussion, panelists will begin by explaining what the Endangerment Finding is, why it matters, and how administrative law shapes EPA’s authority to revisit it. The discussion will then turn to the scientific response to EPA’s proposal, including how a coalition of more than 100 climate and health experts came together to submit a public comment grounded in current science. The panel will close with a look ahead to what this moment could mean for climate regulation, agency decision-making, and legal challenges in the years to come.
