25 States Sue EPA Over New Carbon Emission Rules for Power Plants
May 9, 2024, 02:30 PM
A coalition of 25 Republican state attorneys general, led by West Virginia, has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to challenge a new regulatory rule aimed at significantly reducing carbon emissions from existing coal-fired and new natural gas power plants. This landmark rule, introduced by the Biden administration, seeks to mitigate the impact of these power plants on climate change by enforcing stringent controls on greenhouse gas emissions.
