SCOTUS sides with fossil fuel industry. I guess embryos are important but a habitable planet not so much..... Birdie

I guess embryos are important but having a habitable planet for them to grow up on is not.

These activists judges are interpreting the Constitution exactly the way the heritage foundation, which recommended them, knew they would.

Reading the opinion, it reads like a typical Supreme Court decision. It's about who has authority and apparently the way the law was written does not give the EPA authority, nor the Executive branch the authority to dictate plant emissions in the manner in which they believed.

It's Congresses job and trying to go around that isn't going to work. It's Executive overreach. The court did its job.

@SumKindaMunster You know the Republicans in Congress will obstruct any environmental regulation, as they are in denial of the current crisis.

@CorvusBlackthorne They have been bribed by the fossil fuel industry to look the other way as the planet cooks. They don't give a damn about our children, grandchildren or future generations. And they call themselves religious. What a joke. There religion is money. They need to be cast out from the temple.

@CorvusBlackthorne I know that. Here's what you don't know. Then Democrats don't care either and have no intention of doing anything meaningful about it.
