US Office Warns Against Tackling Climate Change Through EPA

摘要

Regulating greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would likely lead to "serious economic consequences," according to a memo from the White House's Office of Management and Budget (OMB). OMB took comments from federal agencies and officials regarding the EPA's recent "endangerment finding" stating that greenhouse gas emissions pose a risk to public health and welfare and therefore can be regulated by the agency.
