Actually SCOTUS followed the law. The EPA gets it's power from congress and thru legislation gets it's mandates from the clean water act, the clean air act and other legislation. The Executive branch does not have the authority to change those mandates, if congress wishes they can enact new laws changing those mandates but the president does not have that authority. But I would not expect some of you to understand how the constitution works.

It's an easy fix. Congress simply has to be the entity that defines the agency's mission instead of leaving it up to the agency.
My comment here though, in no way is an endorsement of the EPA, itself unconstitutional, or the idea that there exists any kind of crisis in climate that need to be, or even can be, addressed.
