This session will spotlight two cornerstones of U.S. climate policy: the EPA’s Endangerment Finding, which underpins federal authority to regulate greenhouse gases, and the Department of Energy’s Climate Science Report, which provides essential assessments of climate risks and impacts. Harvard faculty experts will examine the legal, scientific, and economic foundations of these measures and what they mean for current and future climate regulation .
