The Trump administration has announced a rollback of restrictions on mercury and other toxic emissions from coal-fired power plants. Under the new measures, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is repealing regulations aimed at limiting hazardous pollutants, raising concerns among health advocates about potential increases in healthcare costs and public health risks. Critics argue that this move could lead to more toxic air pollution, with the possibility of exposing more individuals to harmful substances like mercury and lead. Supporters of the rollback claim it will benefit the coal industry and restore its dominance. The decision has sparked a significant debate over the environmental and health implications, as the EPA reverts to older standards that may allow plants to emit significantly more mercury and other toxins.
