We also find major deficiencies in how the health impacts of this action are quantified, ranging from air quality to questions about electricity reliability. There is much more, but in the end, we conclude that the evidentiary basis for greenhouse gases is robust, and stronger than it was in 2009.

We also find increases in other health harms that did not get attention in the 2009 endangerment finding, including mental health harms, displacement, violence, harms to workers, and harms for those experiencing displacement...

increases in foodborne illnesses, Valley Fever, and other climate sensitive diseases, harms to air quality, and many other diseases.

Major findings: There is increasing certainty in health harms due to climate change and that greenhouse gases pose an indisputable danger to human health and well-being. These health harms span harms due to heat, extreme weather including floods, droughts, storms, and wildfires...

Thank you! You’re making me feel much less bad about leaving tonight…
