Richard C. Keller, the Robert Turell Professor and Chair of Medical History and Bioethics at the University of Wisconsin, joins Nite Lite to talk about President Trump's administration erasing the endangerment finding. With this change, the Environmental Protection Agency will now longer have the legal authority to regulate pollution linked to climate change.

Later in the conversation, Professor Keller talks about the future of the finding and what the future holds for the government's role in creating climate change policy.
