Show Notes
2025 saw a significant surge in pollution from U.S. power plants, with sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, and carbon dioxide emissions rising. The Trump administrations rollback of stricter rules is blamed for this increase, particularly in coal-fired plants. Texas was the hardest hit, with six exempted plants seeing a 48% rise in sulfur dioxide emissions, estimated to cost $8.8 billion in public health. The EPA counters this with a longer-term downward trend in overall emissions.
