Chief Justice John Roberts could be a saving grace on climate change, says chief strategist

Chief Justice John Roberts is seen as the saving grace for climate change in a Supreme Court dominated by a staunch conservative majority, according to a top environmental group.

David Doniger, the Natural Resources Defense Council’s chief climate-change strategist, says the group’s legal arguments will seek to convince Roberts when it comes to climate-change regulations, as President Trump is expected to make his decision on who replaces Justice Anthony Kennedy on Monday.
