EPA Pegs Methane Rule Rollback at $45 Billion a Year; Biden Officials Cite 58 Million Tons Avoided

The EPA says rescinding the Biden-era methane leak policy would save $45 billion a year. Biden-era officials said the rule would prevent an estimated 58 million tons of methane emissions by 2038. The figures measure different things and cannot be netted. The Trump administration was expected to announce the loosening October 27; no rule is final yet.
