A group of 850 local scientists and allies have submitted a public comment to oppose the EPA’s proposed repeal of the Clean Power Plan. The EPA’s case for repeal, they say, is based on “unconvincing legal arguments, without appropriate consideration of the scientific evidence for human-induced climate change.” This repeal would affect facilities such as the Miami Port Power Station near the borders of Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio along the Ohio River. | Photo by FunksBrother, Creative Commons
