          In this area, though, the Trump administration won't have free
          rein. Even as head of the EPA, Pruitt might struggle to undo
          the actions that the agency has already taken. Rescinding
          rules takes time and would inevitably be stalled by
          litigation, Harvard law school professor Jody Freeman wrote
          for the Harvard Law School Environmental Law Program. For
          example, the EPA determined in 2009 that carbon dioxide
          emissions endanger health and welfare and can thus be
          regulated under the Clean Air Act, Freeman wrote. That finding
          has already been put through the crucible of the courts and
          has been upheld. It would be "extremely difficult, if not
          impossible" to reverse that finding at this point, she wrote.

        January 1, 2010: In his World Day of Peace message, Pope
        Benedict XVI declares:</font><br>
      <blockquote><font size="-1">"In 1990 John Paul II had spoken of an
          'ecological crisis' and, in highlighting its primarily ethical
          character, pointed to the 'urgent moral need for a new
          solidarity.' His appeal is all the more pressing today, in the
          face of signs of a growing crisis which it would be
          irresponsible not to take seriously. Can we remain indifferent
          before the problems associated with such realities as climate
          change, desertification, the deterioration and loss of
          productivity in vast agricultural areas, the pollution of
          rivers and aquifers, the loss of biodiversity, the increase of
          natural catastrophes and the deforestation of equatorial and
          tropical regions? Can we disregard the growing phenomenon of
          'environmental refugees,' people who are forced by the
          degradation of their natural habitat to forsake it – and often
          their possessions as well – in order to face the dangers and
          uncertainties of forced displacement? Can we remain impassive
          in the face of actual and potential conflicts involving access
          to natural resources? All these are issues with a profound
          impact on the exercise of human rights, such as the right to
          life, food, health and development."</font><br>
