Article 2, Section 2 of the USA Constitution

The religious and political zealots of the USA Supreme Court are dismantling the USA Consitution.  

The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to Grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.

He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.

The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session.

The agencies, by definition, are part of the Executive Branch. The Executive Branch does not legislate. The Secretary of the EPA serves at the pleasure of the President. The entire ruling by Robert's Court is idiocy.

The Late President George H. W. Bush was concerned about Earth's climate. He recognized this was a global concern and the USA had a place in it.

...Through legislation he signed in 1990, (click here) Bush started the National Climate Assessment, a sweeping study documenting climate change’s impacts on the United States. The Trump administration released the latest iteration on Black Friday and has since downplayed its definitive body of research, making false claims about its accuracy and inadvertently drawing more attention to the clear science that shows Americans will be increasingly at risk as a result of climate change.

Bush’s presidency came during a different time, when bipartisan actions to reduce greenhouse gases and other pollutants seemed possible, observers said. The very existence of the NCA is a reminder that Republicans in Washington once crafted aggressive climate policy....

President Clinton (click here) had extensive policies and was eager to address greenhouse gases whenever he could.

President George W. Bush addressed the issue of Clmate Change early in his presidency.

THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. (click here) I've just met with senior members of my administration who are working to develop an effective and science-based approach to addressing the important issues of global climate change....

This is an issue that I know is very important to the nations of Europe, which I will be visiting for the first time as President. The earth's well-being is also an issue important to America. And it's an issue that should be important to every nation in every part of our world.

The issue of climate change respects no border. Its effects cannot be reined in by an army nor advanced by any ideology. Climate change, with its potential to impact every corner of the world, is an issue that must be addressed by the world.

The Kyoto Protocol was fatally flawed in fundamental ways. But the process used to bring nations together to discuss our joint response to climate change is an important one. That is why I am today committing the United States of America to work within the United Nations framework and elsewhere to develop with our friends and allies and nations throughout the world an effective and science-based response to the issue of global warming....

President Obama reached out to China specifically to have the two largest economies, the USA and China, to enter into agreements to bring about a resolve to end the dangers of Climate Change.

President Obama (click here)  Announces Ambitious 2025 Target to Cut U.S. Climate Pollution by 26-28 Percent from 2005 Levels

Building on strong progress during the first six years of the Administration, today President Obama announced a new target to cut net greenhouse gas emissions 26-28 percent below 2005 levels by 2025.  At the same time, President Xi Jinping of China announced targets to peak CO2 emissions around 2030, with the intention to try to peak early, and to increase the non-fossil fuel share of all energy to around 20 percent by 2030....

When I said the USA Supreme Court under Chief Justice Roberts is guilty of gross malpractice, I meant it. It is obvious the Robert's Court is out of control and way outside the parctice of the Rule of Law.

Hangzhou, China — President Obama and President Xi Jinping of China (click here) formally committed the world’s two largest economies to the Paris climate agreement here on Saturday, cementing their partnership on climate change and offering a rare display of harmony in a relationship that has become increasingly discordant.

On multiple fronts, like computer hacking and maritime security, ties between China and the United States have frayed during the seven and a half years of Mr. Obama’s presidency. The friction has worsened since the ascension of Mr. Xi as a powerful nationalist leader in 2013.

Yet the fact that he and Mr. Obama could set aside those tensions to work together yet again on a joint plan to reduce greenhouse gases attests to the pragmatic personal rapport they have built, as well as to the complexity of the broader United States-China relationship, a tangle of competing and congruent interests....

These agreements directly come from the powers of the President.

l. The United States and China recall their Joint Statement Addressing the Climate Crisis of April 17th, 2021. They are committed to its effective implementation and appreciate the intensive work that has taken place to date and the value of continued discussion.

2.The United States and China, alarmed by reports including the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report released on August 9th, 2021, further recognize the seriousness and urgency of the climate crisis. They are committed to tackling it through their respective accelerated actions in the critical decade of the 2020s, as well as through cooperation in multilateral processes, including the UNFCCC process, to avoid catastrophic impacts...

China EXPECTS the USA to maintain it's promises and agreements. In reaction to the Robert's Court gross malpractice, China immediately reminded the USA of it's responsibilities.

Beijing (Reuters) - The United States must meet its international obligations (click here) on climate change and do more than "shout slogans", China's foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said on Friday following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling limiting Washington's ability to cut power sector emissions.

The Supreme Court voted to constrain the authority of the U.S.'s Environmental Protection Agency to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from existing coal- and gas-fired power plants under the Clean Air Act, sparking dismay among environmentalists....

Every national leader on Earth is completely aware of the dangers of the climate crisis. It is time to end the foot dragging and the US Congress, as if they don't have their hands full with January 6th, must begin a review of the malpractice of the Robert's Court. It is completely obvious the court is out of control. Robert's can't keep the court secure without leaks and absolutely has abdicated his leadership to the right wing extremists since Coney-Barrett showed up and is running her own game from inside the court.
