The Supreme Court curbs the federal government’s ability to fight climate change. The decision is one of the most consequential cases for climate change and clean air in decades.

The Supreme Court curbed the Environmental Protection Agency's ability to broadly regulate carbon emissions from existing power plants, a major defeat for the Biden administration's attempts to slash emissions at a moment when scientists are sounding alarms about the accelerating pace of global warming.

In addition, the court cut back agency authority in general invoking the so-called"major questions" doctrine -- a ruling that will impact the federal government's authority to regulate in other areas of climate policy, as well as regulation of the internet and worker safety. The ruling was 6-3. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the opinion for the conservative majority, with the three liberal justices dissenting.

CNN's Ratings Remain in Freefall Under New Boss Chris Licht

Democrat should to use green energy. We like to use affordable energy!

Democrat’s states use green energy and red states use affordable energy! That’s over!

Just another item on the check list that is leaving the USA behind the worlds progression. Some things are disappointing, this is yet one more thing. An important thing... along with the latest Roe vs ,,,

Good news, the whole climate panic is complete BS.

Climate change is fake like CNN news

Awesome

ur climate wars over reached, simply put. we have had enough.

Liberal nut jobs acting like the US can save the planet but say nothing about Russia and China. They think that’s a different globe.

You are all being played about climate. Biden and Black Rock. It's about money.

Power back to the people WHERE IT BELONGS in a Republic.

This decision will only help the citizens of the US. We believe our actions will shame Russia and China into adopting the same rules, folks that's never going to happen. Our emissions are 14% of the world wide total. We can't and don't impact the other 86%. This is just more BS.

Will legislators finally do their jobs

SCOTUS is a American tragedy bought and paid for. Established to uphold justice while lying under oath.

The army is the one that destroyed the ozone layer, the army is the one that continues to destroy nature, 512 nuclear bombs in the world have been tested since the Second World War, the army is still destroying our planet ..

Masonic rubbish is leading the EU to ruin, Masonic rubbish is leading the USA to ruin, Masonic rubbish does not want people to live in peace and harmony. Rothschilds, Rockefellers and other parasites....

'Why not get incredibly rich while the planet dies?'

Communist News Network

help 2 turn Sahara deserted into solar- panelled energy supply..

America is so screwed up

A multitude of factors conspired to generate the stock market’s worst first-half since 1970, but they all emanated from one word: inflation. Thanks to Joe Biden November is going to be a huge Red Wave

Supreme Court: “You are forbidden from regulating: *Poisons in the air or water *Guns in your community *Rules that protect your environment *Efforts to stop climate change “You may regulate: *Women’s uteruses”

The Supreme Court is going to kill is!!

You cant be for democracy but demand we be ruled by agencies ran by unelected officials.

Dont blame SCOTUS for making the legislative branch do their jobs. If they had done their jobs correctly, there would be no need for this ruling. Only the legislative branch can make laws.

Why do they want us to literally suffer and die

That means the Supreme Court is definitely showing its Republican stripes yet again! Grrrrrr! Climate change is vitally important to get corrected A.S.A.P. Every young person is fed up with the incredibly slow pace of change for their future and their children's future.

SCOTUS IS THE MOST CORUPT AND MURDEROUS BENCH IN AMERICAN HISTORY.... THEY ONLY RULE IF WE LET THEM... DISREGARD AND DISOBEY ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING THEY PROCLAIM!!

America truly is regressing. Destroying Women’s rights and the environment, surely headed towards the dystopian nightmare so often depicted in futuristic movies.

Having the EPA govern CO2 emissions is totally different from their scope when they were created. SCOTUS is just saving it needs to go through Congress.

KenGriffinLiedUnderOath

Sorry ignorant court in the entire world.

Pro life?

So no abortions but choke them out with shit air when they are born...

Pro Life Except when it’s not

Is this justice or politic Part of this court is leaving in the 13th century

This will lead in widespread deregulation across all industries, and will possibly end the restraints against child labor.

Good, time stop slowing down industry!

I fully appreciate that the EPA has a mixed reputation (depending on the presiding president), but there is a clear dismantling of systems in place, of vital checks and balances, that curb abuses of power.

The justices decisions are really for sale . America you are one fuck up country.

What the actual fuck!

HELL OF A JOB, DEMOCRATS! YOU'VE MANAGED TO BRING BACK THE 1918 PANDEMIC, THE 1929 DEPRESSION, THE 1968 RACE RIOTS, AND THE 1979 GAS PRICES - ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

Supreme court has lost all credibility.

So EPA needs to pass things through congress, they do not get ultimate say. What’s the issue? Now blame congress if it doesn’t go the way you want

YAHOOO

Lorelei_CA 🤬 “the court cut back agency authority in general invoking the so-called 'major questions' doctrine -- a ruling that will impact the federal government's authority to regulate in other areas of climate policy, as well as regulation of the internet and worker safety.”

Scotus is a joke.

that trump scotus is really firin on all cylinders when it comes to FU**ING EVERYTHING UP, AYE!

United Stoneage of America

So killing adults with pollution is ok?

What the fuck is wrong with them?!!

Welcome to the right wing cooperate kiss asses!!! They why we can’t get them to sanction the oil companies for outrageous profits!!!! Vote R and that’s what you get!!!

The Federalist Society is now filling the void of a paralyzed Senate. A fascist power grab seeking minority rule and a threat to the nation’s security and future.

Deplorable

Those guys are rock stars, zero f's given

Dontlookup

Supreme Court taking us back to the dark ages.

and the hits just keep on coming

Are they trying to shoot themselves in the head? These right wing despots will not only kill the US they will kill us all.

IRAN, MASOLEH❣

Can the Supreme Court overturn their ability for judicial review since it's not in the Constitution?

Expand the court before it's too late.

FckSCOTUS

Americans must demand via the voting booth the Supreme Court be amended to include term limits full disclosure of personal and financial holdings and impeach Trump's three. They obviously lied under oath a federal crime and are there to take away all the rights the GOP don't like

I’m sick of being jerked around by left or right media clickbait designed to enrage or scare me. Which outlet will describe the opinion objectively beyond “blow to Biden” or “world climate catastrophe”? Is there any honest neutral media left anywhere?

Let’s trust the science. They are never wrong. 🤡🤡🤡

👏 👏, just what we needed, an official excuse to destroy humanity.
