US Revokes Limits on Power Plants' Climate Pollution

The United States has revoked federal limits on climate pollution from power plants, removing restrictions on carbon emissions from a major source of greenhouse gases. The rollback is drawing criticism from climate and environmental groups, who warn it will increase emissions, while it is being welcomed by industry figures who argue the previous rules were overly burdensome.

Why now: The US government's reversal of power plant emissions limits is a significant climate policy change affecting one of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions.
