Curtailing federal control over emissions should be done by Congress, not the EPA
“While the ruling did not technically require the EPA to regulate such emissions, the Court did say that the agency would have to make a determination of ‘whether greenhouse gas emissions contribute to climate change,’ and, if so, proceed with appropriate regulations,” explains Josiah Neeley, an energy scholar at the R Street Institute. “While not regulating anything itself, the endangerment finding thus became the necessary prerequisite for all subsequent regulations on GHGs issued by the EPA.”
