    Default Kagan warns parts of East Coast 'swallowed by the ocean' in dissent in EPA case

    https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics...9dca834ce46a98
    Today, the Court strips the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the power Congress gave it to respond to ‘the most pressing environmental challenge of our time,'" Kagan wrote.

    SUPREME COURT DEALS BIDEN CLIMATE AGENDA SERIOUS BLOW WITH EPA DECISION

    Kagan said the dangers of rising temperatures and, as a result, devastating environmental effects, including, "Rising waters, scorching heat, and other severe weather conditions [that] could force ‘mass migration events[,] political crises, civil unrest,’ and even state failure.'"

    Kagan elaborated that the Earth was "now warmer than any time" in modern history, highlighting the importance of scientific research on carbon dioxide contributing to global warming. She also wrote global warming could be the cause of "4.6 million excess yearly deaths."

    She added that the EPA's authority in curbing greenhouse emissions did fall into the parameters set by Congress.

    "Section 111 of the Clean Air Act directs EPA to regulate stationary sources of any substance that ‘causes, or contributes significantly to, air pollution’ and that ‘may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare,’" she wrote.

    Kagan wrote carbon dioxide and other such greenhouse gases did, in fact, categorize as such per the description.

    These lib judges dissents have been whacked out. C02 is "pollution" for the clean air act
    the rest is pure alarmist propaganda

    Doomsday prediction for surging tides was WRONG: Study claims ice-cliffs of Antarctica will be responsible for just a 6-inch boost in sea levels - SEVEN times less than previously thought
    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...ise-WRONG.html

    Al Gore’s movie ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ says sea levels could rise up to 20 feet. Is this true?

    Maybe Kagan should stick to something she knows--whatever that is--because she doesn't know shit about the climate or environment.

    Notice her dissent had absolutely nothing to do with actual law.

    Neither does the majority of this Court’s decisions, everything they do is 100% by design

    I have to agree. When you can predict how a SC justice will rule, either way, those guys can interpret the law any way they desire.
    SC court decisions should be closer to unanimous IMO.
    The EPA decision should have been more like 8-1 or 7-2 at worst.

    Is violent crime and homeless camps really that low in Albania?

    you can argue the decisions, you cant argue the Trump type judge and Alito/Thomas use the Constitution to make decisions.
    The libs make decisions on policy -inherently unConstituional.. Kagan just makes alarmist statements and says
    "CO@ is obviously covered as a pollutant" - no the regulatory state (current EPA) claims that-
    the Clean Air Act was designed to combat air pollution

    This Court’s ruling on nearly everything is totally predictable, Mitch insured that, the case itself means next to nothing, they will conjure up some rationale for deciding it as scripted

    Libs are prone to use "living document" and just allow the Constituion to fit their needs.

    SCOTUS didn't rule on Co2. It ruled Congress did not give the Clean Air Act the power to regulate such

    You kidding, the States in the NorthEast have some of the lowest crime and homicide rates in the country, some of the safest States to live (https://worldpopulationreview.com/st...-rate-by-state), not Fox’s armageddon theme, rather the facts

    Back during the Warren/Berger Court the "living document" crowd found implied rights - they aren't there but by judicial grace -hence Roe..i will agree with you it's like imperfect karma
    trying to remove it does more damage then simple allowing it to stand under stare decisis

    But you can't argue a right that isnt there
