Supreme Court Upholds Biden Administration's Environmental Regulations on Methane and Mercury Emissions
In a significant ruling, the US Supreme Court has decided not to block the Biden administration's limits on methane and toxic pollution, marking a rare victory for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The court has allowed the enforcement of stricter emission rules for oil and gas facilities and power plants, thereby leaving two critical environmental regulations in place. This decision reinforces the federal commitment to reducing emissions of planet-warming greenhouse gases and harmful pollutants, as the country continues to address climate change and public health concerns.
