LINK FIXED

IMO this decision is far more important than Dobbs or Bruen. I remember progs belittling me for saying that Trump's most important achievement was in the judiciary. He who laughs last .... And I am laughing.

Well, right now it might be more accurate to say you're speculating.

Supreme Court limits federal power to regulate carbon emissions
The Supreme Court on Thursday sharply curbed the federal government's authority to limit carbon emissions from existing power plants, dealing a major blow to the administration's climate goals.

In a 6-3 ruling, the court's conservative supermajority sided with conservative states and fossil fuel companies in a move that will hobble efforts to move the US away from coal-burning power plants and toward sources of renewable energy.

The decision will have "profound implications for the government's overall regulatory power" and will "seriously hinder America's ability to stave off disastrous global heating," writes Oliver Milman, the Guardian's environment reporter.

Here's more from Oliver:

The case, which was backed by a host of other Republican-led states including Texas and Kentucky, was highly unusual in that it was based upon the Clean Power Plan, an Obama-era strategy to cut emissions from coal-fired power plants that never came into effect. The Biden administration sought to have the case dismissed as baseless given the plan was dropped and has not been resurrected.

Not only was this case about a regulation that does not exist, that never took effect, and which would have imposed obligations on the energy sector that it would have met regardless. It also involves two legal doctrines that are not mentioned in the constitution, and that most scholars agree have no basis in any federal statute.

However, the supreme court has sided with West Virginia, a major coal mining state, which argued that "unelected bureaucrats" at the EPA should not be allowed to reshape its economy by limiting pollution - even though emissions from coal are helping cause worsening flooding, heatwaves and droughts around the world, as well as killing millions of people through toxic air.

It is the most important climate change case to come before the supreme court in more than a decade.

Again, , , , , , abortion should be "legal" and the EPA needs to do what they've been doing but, , , , , , it will be so very hard to connect those "issues" with anything in the Constitution of the United Sates.

Too little, too late as far as the environment.

Climate change will not be mitigated if it means the slightest inconvenience to the wealthy. But then I suppose those folks are evenly divided between those who think magic will cleanse the earth and those who want to get on Elon's rocket ship.

Capitalism is based on the ridiculous notion that you can enjoy limitless growth in a closed, finite system.

In biology, such behavior of cells is called "cancer".

You have it exactly backwards. The rich can afford all the extra costs that result from this massive waste of money. The working man cannot.

-------------------------
I :heart; Q

The wealthy ignore climate change because they have the money to avoid or tolerate it's effects. The working man cannot.

The global migration north will accelerate and there's not a wall you can build that will keep them out. They'll be coming in numbers, so you better buy all the ammo you can.

That avoidance seems to involve buying beach houses.

Beach houses that they will either write off or have their politicians compensate them for when they fall in the sea.

The wealthy know full well that climate change is real, they just figure they can afford to avoid it. Let the little people suffer.

So then you admit that your pals are buying beach houses knowing that they will fall into the sea?

Wow!

Are you as stupid as they are?

I think so.

More pollution is a good thing? You guys are so fucked in the head.

You fight against wind, you fight against solar, you fight against clean air and clean water and against electric. Why?

I was right.

You defend big oil when they charge you out the ass for gas. Why?

I was right.

Biden is the sole reason for gas prices as they are...
