While most of the world is worried about rising sea levels and extreme weather, the US Supreme Court did a puzzling thing. It limited the power of the Environmental Protection Agency and other federal agencies to regulate power plant emissions. Last Thursday’s 6-3 ruling on the case West Virginia vs. EPA sets a precedent that could limit the capacity of all federal government agencies to establish new rules. Instead, states will be the leaders in power plant regulations. This could range […]
