Somewhat breaking news. A court filing[3] (from 9/4) from DOE has noted that the Climate Working Group has been disbanded (as of 9/3). This was done to make the EDF/UCS lawsuit[4] moot, but it also means that DOE is withdrawing the report[5], no-one will respond appropriately to the comments submitted[6], and (possibly) it becomes irrelevant for the EPA reconsideration of the Endangerment Finding.

What a farce.

Update: Via Andy Revkin, the EDF/UCS’s blistering response to the DOE filing[7]. Pass the popcorn.
