Ohio groups warn EPA rollback could shift climate costs

Public News Service: Miranda Leppla, the director of the Environmental Law Clinic at the School of Law, warned that the EPA’s rollback of the 2009 Endangerment Finding could weaken federal authority to regulate greenhouse gases, shifting climate-related health and infrastructure costs to local communities. Leppla emphasized the Clean Air Act’s core purpose is protecting public health by regulating dangerous pollutants nationwide.
