Obama tightens power plant emissions rule to cut CO2
Obama finalized strict greenhouse gas limits for existing U.S. power plants aiming for a 32 percent CO2 cut by 2030 from 2005 levels. The rule faces immediate lawsuits and Republican opposition, with states allowed extensions to 2022 for compliance and more time to file plans. Environmentalists and Democratic allies praise the move as a watershed step in climate action.
