 | Greenhouse Gases: Cuccinelli Challenges EPA Greenhouse Gas Regulations |
 Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli filed a petition with the U.S. EPA asking the agency to reconsider its finding that greenhouse gases pose a danger to public health by contributing to climate change. The EPA’s finding is a “legal trigger” that would allow the EPA to regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. Cuccinelli’s office said that the EPA needs to review its findings due to newly available information. In a press conference, Cuccinelli said that the EPA should consider recently publicized emails from a British climate-research office that show that they used faulty data to support the notion of manmade climate change. Cuccinelli also filed a separate petition asking a federal court to review the EPA’s finding. Texas also filed a similar petition challenging the EPA’s finding, claiming that the finding is “legally unsupported” because it relies on scientific findings from the IPCC (which may have used the faulty data from the British climate-research office to reach their conclusions). Cuccinelli said that the decision that global warming poses a threat to people relies on faulty data and will hurt jobs.
