US Supreme Court limits EPA's ability to regulate emissions from coal plants

The US Supreme Court imposed limits on the federal government's authority to issue regulations to reduce carbon emissions from power plants in a ruling that undermines U.S. President Joe Biden's plans to tackle climate change and could limit other agencies on other issues.

The court s 6 - 3 ruling limited the power of the Environmental Protection Agency EPA to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from existing coal and gas-fired power plants under the Clean Air Act. Biden's administration is working on new regulations.
