The United States Supreme Court has ruled to reduce the government’s authority over the government’s regulation of thermal power generation emissions, saying that the federal parliament has the authority to decide the regulation.
The Biden administration, which has put up climate change measures as a signboard policy, is likely to hurt.
In this case, the state of Southern West Virginia, where the coal industry is concentrated, has the authority to decide the regulation on the emission regulation that promotes the conversion from thermal power generation to wind power and solar power generation, which is being promoted by the environmental protection bureau of the government agency. The scope of government authority was at issue, claiming no.
The Federal Supreme Court said “Regulations to promote the transition from coal may lead to the solution of environmental problems, but such a serious decision is left to the federal parliament.” The decision was made to reduce the authority of the protection station.
The decision was supported by six conservatives, including three nominated by former President Trump, of the nine judges, and all three liberals opposed it.
The Biden administration returned to the Paris Agreement, an international framework for global warming countermeasures from which the former Trump administration left, last year, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 50% to 52% compared to 2005 by 2030. We have set climate change countermeasures as a signboard policy, such as setting goals to be implemented.
On the other hand of this decision there is a possibility that the government will need to approve the parliament if it promotes environmental regulations in the future, which is likely to hurt the government.
President said it is “A terrible decision to retreat the country”
President Biden made a statement about the Supreme Court’s decision: That “It’s a terrible decision to retreat our country. On the side of interest groups that have been campaigning for a long time to deprive people of their right to breathe clean air. It stands in the way of “.
“He emphasized the idea of considering what the government can do, saying that “the crisis to public health caused by climate change cannot be overlooked.”
