US Supreme Court Limits Use of Anti-Air Pollution Law in Major Blow to WH's Climate Change Policy_我的网站

三毛流浪记

一 | The US Supreme Court has ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency interpreted the Clean Air Act - the country's main anti-air pollution law that allows the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions - too broadly, and ordered to limit its use. Six justices deemed "conservative" supported the decision, while three "liberal" justices opposed it.,The court specifically ruled that the EPA does not have the authority to limit emissions from power plants using the Clean Air Act.,The decision comes as a response to an appeal by 19 states, coal companies and power plants to prevent the EPA from abusing broad authority to regulate emissions. They asked the US Supreme Court to allow them greater flexibility in phasing out emissions-intensive plants, namely coal ones so that they could provide services reliably.,The ruling might undermine Joe Biden's planned efforts to propose mandatory emission reductions at power plants in the US by the end of the year. It is supposed to be the first step in the POTUS' broader plan to have the country's power generation emissions-free in 13 years.,So Much for Climate Agenda? Biden Administration Issues More Gas, Oil Drilling Permits Than Trump29 January, 13:17 GMT,The idea of regulating power plant emissions dates back to the Obama administration and its plans to pass the Clean Power Plan that would have explicitly given the government the tools to retire emissions-intensive coal plans. The act was effectively blocked by a 5-4 US Supreme Court decision in 2016 and shelved for good under the Donald Trump administration.,Regardless of the Democrats' efforts, the US power plant emissions have actually already sunk below the levels that should have been achieved only by 2030 under Obama's original plan. They were achieved thanks to closures of the very same coal plants driven by market mechanisms.。

　　近日美国媒体人Trevor Lane和Donnie Freeman录制了《The Basketball Bulletin》播客，在最新更新的一期里，他们谈到伦纳德与猛龙的相关话题。

    　　Trevor Lane：如果伦纳德的交易顺利通过，猛龙在东部能排在什么位置？

    　　Donnie Freeman：我可能还不会把他们排在东部第一梯队，大概在第二梯队。但如果伦纳德能保持健康，与交易前相比，他们拥有了极高上限，完全有机会冲刺第一梯队。

　　Trevor Lane：我也觉得他们目前处于第二梯队，但上限是第一梯队的争冠球队，因为伦纳德上赛季的表现太出色了。我相信猛龙阵容里的一些年轻球员会继续进步，他们现在有很多优秀的球员。

四 | 毫无保留地换来伦纳德，绝对有可能让他们突破瓶颈。

五 | 我看好他们的前景，他们具备这样的上限，在东部可能排在第三好的位置。

    　　Donnie Freeman：东部这边，是不是只有尼克斯自己独占第一梯队？

    　　Trevor Lane：我认为是的。尼克斯就在那里，你必须给予他们作为卫冕冠军的尊重。我不知道凯尔特人现在是什么水平，不知道骑士怎么样。我觉得猛龙其实很轻松就能和活塞排在一起。
