Climate endangerment is a geophysical reality
If EPA cancels the 2009 Endangerment Finding, it will leave the US with a less substantive basis for legally required pollution control, raising costs for taxpayers, industry, and future generations.
Endangerment from climate pollution is a geophysical reality. Neither the danger nor the costs can be wished away by a memo or by rewriting the science. Voiding the Endangerment Finding will cost Americans far more than simply eliminating pollution.

So DOD risked civilian airspace to obliterate some fucking balloons; when FAA found out and asked them to stop they refused; FAA did what it had to keep people safe; when the public rightly freaked out, DOD relented, lied, and blamed the FAA.
