"Biden Administration Delays Tough Climate Rules for Gas Power Plants"
TL;DR Summary
The Biden administration plans to delay final limits on emissions from gas-fired power plants to strengthen them, likely finalizing the rule after November, with its fate possibly resting on the 2024 election. This decision comes in response to pleas from environmental justice groups and aims to cover more pollutants, including climate, toxic, and criteria air pollution. The move is part of a broader effort to combat pollution from the power sector and address concerns of disadvantaged communities living near industrial pollution sources.
