The transportation sector is also a substantial source of nitrogen oxides and particulates, both of which are dangerous to human health. EPA is an effort by conservative states and fuel suppliers to block EPA regulations of greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles under the Clean Air Act.

This is a common sense step that relies on affordable, proven technology already in use in millions of gasoline vehicles outside the US. The overall combination of reductions in particulate matter, nitrogen oxides and other air pollutants are expected to deliver $13 billion in annual health benefits. One thing to keep in mind.

This new regulation would apply to delivery vans, big rigs, box trucks, and buses. The Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) rule has the potential to significantly reduce climate-warming greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions as well as harmful air pollutants like fine particulates (PM2.5) Regulate more tractor trucks, including the smaller fleets.

JM: Quite simply, if we don’t clean up the power sector, we won’t get anywhere close to reducing the amount of carbon emissions needed to avoid the worst consequences of climate change. First, the court did not question the EPA’s authority to regulate power plant carbon emissions. Not even close. EPA’s 6-3 majority opinion.

But in fact, gas power plants are unreliable in extreme temperatures, which—thanks to climate change—have been occurring more frequently. Gas plants and infrastructure emit nitrogen oxides (NOx) during combustion, which degrade local air quality. First, there’s air pollution.

According to an October 2023 report by the Climate Investigations Center (CIC), a nonprofit watchdog organization, the industry has been gaslighting us by promoting the idea that “cooking with gas” is a good thing, despite knowing as far back as 1970 that gas stoves pose a threat to public health and the environment.

In 2021 alone, the plants slated for retirement emitted more than 28,000 tonnes of nitrogen oxides (NO x ), 32,000 tonnes of sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), and 51 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), according to EIA data. A recent study found that more than 99 percent of the global population is exposed to unsafe levels of PM 2.5
