Obama Administration to Propose 30% Cuts to Power Plant Carbon Emissions

The proposed rule, to be laid out by the E.P.A. administrator at a news event on Monday morning, would seek to cut carbon dioxide emissions from existing power plants by 30% compared to 2005 levels by the year 2030, according to reports from the Wall Street Journal and New York Times
