Court limits EPA authority on climate
The Supreme Court curbed the EPA’s power under the Clean Air Act to broadly regulate greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. In a 6-3 ruling, conservatives majority said Congress must clearly delegate such authority, affecting climate policy and Biden’s plan to halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and move to emission-free power by 2035. Justice Kagan dissented, warning the decision undercuts urgent environmental action. Biden called it devastating and vowed to persist in safeguarding public health and climate.
