Epa's Endangerment Finding For Greenhouse Gases And The Potential Duty To Adopt National Ambient Air Quality Standards To Address Global Climate Change, Patricia Ross Mccubbin
Epa's Endangerment Finding For Greenhouse Gases And The Potential Duty To Adopt National Ambient Air Quality Standards To Address Global Climate Change, Patricia Ross Mccubbin

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) recently announced its intention to make a finding under the Clean Air Act that greenhouse gases from new cars and light trucks endanger the public health and welfare by contributing to global climate change. That proposed endangerment finding and the vehicle emission standards that will follow are highly controversial, with industry representatives vigorously challenging EPA’s scientific conclusions. Of even greater controversy, however, is the possibility that issuance of the final endangerment finding will obligate EPA and the states to regulate greenhouse gases from nearly every sector of the economy with “national …
Carbon Regulation And Its Impact On The Appalachian Basin: Why The Coal-Fired Energy Industry In Appalachia Should Embrace, Prepare For, And Help Shape A Comprehensive Legislative Scheme That Limits Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Mark L. Belleville
