丹佛加入多州诉讼 挑战联邦放宽电厂污染限制
丹佛市10月1日宣布，加入科罗拉多州及另外24个州、县、市组成的联盟，起诉联邦政府，要求恢复对大型电厂温室气体排放的限制。市府认为，削弱电厂污染标准将加重空气污染与气候风险，也会增加居民健康负担。丹佛近年持续推动建筑节能、清洁交通与减排目标，此次诉讼是其气候政策的一部分。对华人居民而言，电厂排放与区域空气质量直接相关，案件后续走向值得关注。市府表示，将继续与州政府合作，通过法律途径维护联邦清洁空气规则，并及时向公众通报进展。
Denver Joins Multi-State Lawsuit Over Power Plant Pollution Rollback
Denver announced on October 1 that it has joined Colorado and a coalition of 24 other states, counties, and cities suing the federal government over the rollback of greenhouse gas pollution limits for many large power plants. City officials argue that weakening the standards would worsen air pollution and climate risks while raising health costs for residents. The lawsuit fits Denver's broader climate agenda, which includes building efficiency, cleaner transportation, and emissions cuts. For local families, power plant emissions are closely tied to regional air quality, making the case worth following. The city says it will keep working with state partners through the courts and update the public as the case moves forward.
