US Revokes Limits on Power Plants' Climate Pollution

The United States has moved to revoke federal limits on climate pollution from power plants, removing emissions restrictions on one of the country's largest sources of greenhouse gases. Human Rights Watch reports the decision, which critics say will worsen climate change and its health effects, while supporters frame it as relief from costly regulations on the energy sector.

Why now: The rollback of power plant emissions limits is a significant shift in US climate policy with global environmental consequences.
