Sinopsis

Hundreds of people gathered across the nation on Tuesday, in four different cities to give the Environmental Protection Agency a piece of their minds. The subject: proposed new rules to cut carbon pollution from power plants 30 percent by 2030. The rules, announced back in June, would be the biggest step taken by the US so far to combat the effects of climate change. Public hearings are going on in Washington DC, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, and the only hearing in the West-- in Denver. Our Inside Energy Reporter Dan Boyce stopped by.
