The Institute for Policy Integrity is a non-partisan think tank dedicated to improving the quality of governmental decisionmaking. We produce original scholarly research in the fields of economics, law, and regulatory policy. We also advocate for reform before courts, legislatures, and executive agencies.
Our primary focus areas include energy, climate change, natural resources, environmental health, and regulatory policy. Policy Integrity regularly collaborates with non-governmental organizations, facilitating their effective participation in the regulatory process.
Environmental Law, Environmental Regulation, Public Policy, and Economics
The Institute for Policy Integrity at NYU School of Law uses economics and law to support smart policies for the environment, public health, and consumers.

EPA wants to reconsider its 2009 Endangerment Finding for GHG emissions, emphasizing that it didn't consider future regulatory costs. Our issue brief explains that EPA must assess these costs when setting standards, not when making an endangerment finding. ⬇️
The issue brief reviews:
🏛️ Key court decisions clarifying that policy considerations, including cost, should not be part of an endangerment finding;
📜 The statutory text’s exclusion of cost from the endangerment finding and separate requirement to consider costs when issuing regulations; and
🌳 The legal and analytical appropriateness of EPA’s approach to consider the costs and benefits of the greenhouse gas regulations at the time of their issuance—and EPA’s findings that the greenhouse gas regulations deliver overwhelming benefits for public health and the environment.

For nearly twenty years, the federal government has used economic values of climate change's impacts to inform critical decisions. Until now.
In a new issue brief with Peter H. Howard and Jason Schwartz, we explain why the government's retreat from the social cost of greenhouse gases violates good economics, science, and law.
