Earlier this year [2015] the US Supreme Court blocked an Environmental Protection Agency [EPA] regulation meant to limit emissions of mercury and other toxic pollutants from coal-fired power plants. Many states challenged the EPA proposal citing extreme cost burdens it would have imposed. In this podcast, Emma Stewart, head of sustainability solutions at Autodesk, discusses how this outcome could have all been avoided.
