This US Supreme Court case could derail Biden’s climate plan
Climate-change activists rallied outside the Supreme Court on 28 February as the justices heard arguments in the caseThe US Supreme Court heard oral arguments this week in a controversial lawsuit that could deal yet another blow to President Joe Biden’s climate agenda.
Under fire in the Supreme Court case is the EPA’s authority to regulate emissions from coal-fired power plants such as this one, in Adamsville, Alabama.dubbed the Affordable Clean Energy plan, which more narrowly interpreted the Clean Air Act. It also limited pollution controls to technologies that could be installed at individual power plants. Critics said it would do little, if anything, to encourage a broader shift towards clean energy.

Dylann Roof takes church shooting appeal to US Supreme CourtAttorneys for convicted Charleston church shooter Dylann Roof have asked the U.S. Supreme Court to decide how to handle disagreements over mental illness-related evidence between capital defendants and their attorneys, an issue that has played a role throughout his case over the 2015 racist slayings of nine members of a Black South Carolina congregation. When a capital defendant who has been ruled competent to stand trial and his attorneys “disagree on whether to present mitigating evidence depicting him as mentally ill, who gets the final say?” Roof's appellate team wrote in their petition, filed late last month with the high court.
