    The Trump administration is defunding FEMA as well as climate research, making responding to such storms more difficult.

  16. This debate will undoubtedly be shaken up by the #Trump #EPA’s recent killing of the #EndangermentFinding. That scientific finding by the agency was the foundation of federal #GreenhouseGas #regulations. #SCOTUS has previously ruled that the EPA’s role managing those regulations blocked many federal lawsuits over harms from #ClimateChange. Some legal experts say the end of the endangerment finding opens up a new lane for lawsuits against the #FossilFuel industry in federal court.

    "Trump has done more than harm the government’s ability to fight global heating

    By repealing the EPA’s determination that greenhouse gases threaten public health, the president is denying reality itself.

    The climate crisis is killing people. These deaths are measurable, documented and ongoing. Concluding otherwise is just playing pretend. Studies explain the mechanics, but lived experience supplies the truth. The people who suffer the consequences see the fire rising and water closing in. They need their government’s help.

    Despite that, the president of the United States stood at a microphone last Thursday and abdicated his duty to them. 'It has nothing to do with public health,' he claimed about the climate crisis while announcing that the federal government would repeal the Environmental Protection Agency’s 'endangerment finding', a determination that greenhouse gases endanger human health and welfare. 'This is all a scam, a giant scam.'

    What he was lying about is a truth the federal government – even under his first administration – has embraced for nearly two decades. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued the 'endangerment finding' in 2009. Drawing upon extensive scientific evidence, the EPA concluded that emissions driving the climate crisis contribute to extreme heat, intensified storms, rising sea levels, wildfires and degraded air quality, all of which carry direct consequences for human life and safety.

    The endangerment finding was not rhetorical flourish. It was the legal keystone of modern US climate regulation, the scientific and administrative determination that enabled the federal government to regulate greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act. It formed the basis for emissions standards governing vehicles, power plants and industry."

    #EnvironmentalGroups sue #Trump’s #EPA over repeal of landmark #climate finding

    Lawsuit from #health and #EnvironmentalJustice groups challenges the EPA’s rollback of the ‘endangerment finding’

    Dharna Noor
    Wed 18 Feb 2026 07.10 EST

    "More than a dozen health and environmental justice non-profits have sued the Environmental Protection Agency over its revocation of the legal determination that underpins US federal climate regulations.

    "Filed in Washington DC circuit court, the lawsuit challenges the EPA’s rollback of the '#EndangermentFinding', which states that the buildup of heat-trapping #pollution in the atmosphere endangers #PublicHealth and welfare and has allowed the EPA to limit those emissions from #vehicles, #PowerPlants and other #industrial sources since 2009. The rollback was widely seen as a major setback to US efforts to combat the #ClimateCrisis.

    "The suit was brought by the American Public Health Association [#APHA], #AmericanLungAssociation, the #CenterForBiologicalDiversity, the #EnvironmentalDefenseFund, the #NaturalResourcesDefenseCouncil [#NRDC], the #SierraClub and 11 other public health and environmental organizations. The lawsuit was filed by green legal organizations #CleanAirTaskForce and #Earthjustice and it names the EPA and the agency’s administrator, #LeeZeldin, as defendants.

    " 'EPA’s repeal of the endangerment finding and #safeguards to limit vehicle emissions marks a complete dereliction of the agency’s mission to protect people’s health and its legal obligation under the #CleanAirAct,' said #GretchenGoldman, president and CEO at the #UnionOfConcernedScientists, another one of the groups behind the lawsuit. 'This shameful and dangerous action by the Trump administration and EPA Administrator Zeldin is rooted in falsehoods not facts and is at complete odds with the public interest and the best available science.'
