US EPA wants to erase greenhouse gas limits on power plants, NYT reports
https://www.msn.com/en-us/politics/government/us-epa-wants-to-erase-greenhouse-gas-limits-on-power-plants-nyt-reports/ar-AA1FoKHHThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has drafted a plan to eliminate all limits on greenhouse gases from coal and gas-fired power plants in the United States, the New York Times reported on Saturday, citing internal agency documents.
The EPA argued in its proposed regulation that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from power plants that burn fossil fuels "do not contribute significantly to dangerous pollution" or to climate change because they are a small and declining share of global emissions, according to the NYT report.
