Efforts by Congress pass overarching climate legislation have been abandoned18 and state efforts implement innovative legislation aimed at mitigating the climate change threat have been met with considerable industry and political resistance.19 Within this political and legal vacuum, President Obama directed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) promulgate a number of new regulations under the Clean Air Act (CAA) attempt aggressively curtail emissions of GHGs.20 However, the tools available under the CAA are insufficient on their own address the United States' contribution climate change.21 In the absence of new legislation targeting climate change, the Administration should explore additional legally permissible and innovative options under other environmental statutes with the aim of mitigating the climate-change threat.This Note argues that an innovative application of existing law is available under the National Forest Management Act of 197622 (NFMA). While a regulatory regime that directly limits GHGs could lead rapid short-term decreases in emissions, applying the NFMA help slow the effects of climate change could result in two key, though longer term, benefits. First, forest management aimed at reducing land-use changes (i. …" @default.
