Supreme Court leaves in place EPA rule aimed at reducing emissions of planet-warming gas methane

The Supreme Court upheld Biden administration regulations aimed at reducing methane emissions, a major contributor to climate change. The Environmental Protection Agency regulation aims to cut methane emissions by up to 80% over the next 14 years.
Methane is significantly more potent than carbon dioxide for trapping heat, contributing to global warming. The rules were upheld without opinions by the justices given, and there were also no dissenters among the group. Some had argued that these rules overstepped their boundaries.
