I know you already guessed it but it is still shocking. Repealing the endangerment finding violates Us law but also breaches the US’ international obligations under the UNFCCC and in customary international law.

Whatever the EPA tries to do this week, understand that a) it will still be challenged in court (probably successfully - though it might take a while); b) EPA is not doing much in any case; and c) most of the action in the US is at the state and local level.
