Law Professor Says Oregon Can Take Steps As Trump Kills Federal Climate (scam) Action

Remember back when we were told we should only listen to climate scientists? About that
Law professor says Oregon can take action if federal climate change regulations go up in smoke
With the Trump administration’s dismantling of environmental regulations and total reversal of policies to combat climate change, activists have filed lawsuits and requests for injunctions all over the country. The latest development is the Trump-led Environmental Protection Agency reversing the long-standing “endangerment finding” that greenhouse gases threatened human health and welfare. One environmental law professor at Harvard called it “an assault on the foundation of all federal climate policy.”
Well, yeah, it is, because the Constitution really didn’t give the Congress the power to do this, hence, the Executive Branch wouldn’t have laws to Do Something. But, it is what it is, hence, what Obama and Biden can put into regulation Trump can kill
Lewis & Clark environmental law professor Melissa Powers says Oregon — and other states — do have options to fight climate change, besides filing individual lawsuits. She says one viable strategy would be for Oregon to create a Climate Superfund. We talk with her about what the unraveling of environmental regulations is likely to mean in Oregon and more about the potential for an Oregon Climate Superfund.
Hmm, notice she fails to say that the Warmists in Oregon can practice what they preach? Give up their own use of fossil fuels, live in tiny homes, don’t use hair dryers and ice makers, only buy second hand clothes, not use plastics, and more? Weird, right?
