In the same week large swaths of the US were under extreme heat warnings, Joe Biden’s Justice Department filed its most recent motion to dismiss a landmark climate case by arguing that nothing in the Constitution guarantees the right to a secure climate.
Wouldn’t that be the EPA’s job? I do wish they had more power or were more strict when it came to climate change measures. I did find this though: https://www.epa.gov/climate-change
Ya, the funding cuts make it tough to do though. The EPA actually just decided to not reevaluate the smog standards showing the inability to do much at all.

It’s not about justifying the need for a livable climate, but being able to legally enforce the future having one.

The constitution also doesn’t deny the right to a stable climate, if that is what you mean.
It just has nothing to do with it.
