EPA revokes power plant emission rules
The Environmental Protection Agency is halting federal limits on greenhouse gas emissions from coal and natural gas power plants, reversing recent Biden-era climate regulations to reduce energy costs. This rollback could lead to an additional 5.8 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions by 2050 and result in increased health damages from pollution. While California maintains its own regulations and is less affected, the national relaxation of standards threatens broader climate progress and global efforts to curb warming.
