    • Abstract:
      The article discusses U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal to revise climate change regulations that would allow states to decide on carbon dioxide emissions from coal plants as of August 18, 2018. Topics covered include the plan's qualified relaxation of pollution rules, its weakening of former President Barack Obama's Clean Power Plan, and the possible rise of emissions. Also noted is the new rule's rejection of the federal government's obligation to reduce emissions.
