This pivotal scientific determination has served as a cornerstone for regulating greenhouse gas emissions, and its removal raises serious concerns about the implications for public health and environmental safety.
The Trump administration's aggressive deregulation efforts include rescinding vehicle emission standards, igniting fears among advocates about rising pollution and its detrimental effects on human well-being.
The lawsuits underline a unified response from various advocacy groups, reflecting a deep concern over the administration's disregard for established science in making policy changes.
