WASHINGTON, D.C.–(ENEWSPF)–August 21, 2012.  Today, the D.C. Circuit Court ruled against the Environmental Protection Agency’s Cross-State Air Pollution protection, which sought to protect Americans from dangerous air pollution from coal-fired power plants. Sierra Club joined the lawsuit, along with the Environmental Defense Fund, Clear Air Task Force, American Lung Association, the Natural Resources Defense Council and others, as well as over a dozen US states and cities, in an effort to defend the life-saving protection against big polluters.
