The Environmental Protection Agency rule marks a significant step towards limiting pollution from coal-fired power plants, despite legal challenges and dissent from some justices.
Justice Kavanaugh noted that while the challengers might succeed in the long run, immediate action to block the rule isn't necessary due to the extended compliance deadlines.
Rich Nolan of the National Mining Association expressed that the rule imposes unrealistic standards that could have devastating consequences for power plants and the economy.
The rule's requirements to capture 90% of carbon emissions from coal plants represent a crucial part of Biden's climate goals, aiming for a carbon-free electricity sector by 2035.
