Primarily, these have focused on the 2007 EPA regulations, which were the first step in the phase-in of diesel engine standards meant to cut particulate emissions by more than 80 percent and smog-forming nitrogen oxides (NO X ) emissions by 90 percent. <mic drop> So, is industry just full of it?

IRA clean energy investments also will protect public health by cutting key toxic air pollutants, such as nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide, by more than 50 percent by 2050, and drastically reduce fine particulate matter, which will save hundreds of billions of dollars in 2035 alone from avoided premature deaths.

By: Lesley Foxhall Pietras On August 8, 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a far-reaching Clean Air Act rule intended to address the interstate transport of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from upwind to downwind states. See 76 Fed. 48208 (Aug. Tribune, Sept. See David E. 7, 2011).

A 2010 US study showed that stopping burning coal could be done by 2030 with renewables and energy efficiency. Some US States and EU countries already have little to no coal at all (for example, the UK virtually phase out coal in the past few years).

The transportation sector is also a substantial source of nitrogen oxides and particulates, both of which are dangerous to human health. Transportation is now the source of 28% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, more than the electric power sector. That back-and-forth mostly tracked the briefing.

23) Since 2010, natural gas flaring and venting have increased 1.52 Along with Carbon dioxide and Methane, particle pollution such as particulate matter and nitrogen oxides are examples of pollutants discharged into the atmosphere from flaring. (26) Unfortunately, fossil gas is frequently viewed as an immaterial externality. (21)
