Suspending work on Clean Power Plan is not healthy for Utahns
- Abstract
As a physician who has spent many years trying to improve the health of my patients and communities here in Utah, the recent debate about the clean air standards in our state has been troubling. President Obama’s ambitious Clean Power Plan, which aims to limit the amount of carbon pollution that power plants can release, has been temporarily put on hold by a ruling in the Supreme Court. The court’s decision has led Utah and some other states to postpone their compliance planning.
