THE EPA'S ENDANGERMENT FINDING ON AIRCRAFT GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS: A PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS

摘要

Overall, the future remains uncertain for the EPA's impending regulations setting standards for aircraft GHG emissions. Such regulations would help the United States meet international obligations and help American aircraft manufacturers better market their products internationally. The new Trump Administration leaves the outlook a little unclear. Only time will tell how President Trump decides to handle the EPA's endan-germent findings on aircraft GHG emissions and the United States' international agreements to decrease total GHG emissions. This may be an area where President Trump decides that it makes more business sense to maintain the status quo, as opposed to instituting changes that could drastically affect an important segment of the U.S. economy.
