Coal-fired power plants would be forced to capture smokestack emissions or shut down under a rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency.

The Environmental Protection Agency released long-awaited, updated power plant standards Thursday, aiming to further reduce air pollution that makes people sick and the greenhouse gases emissions warming the planet.

The Environmental Protection Agency finalized four new rules Thursday that set tougher emissions limits on coal and new gas-fired power plants, taking restrictions further than the agency’s earlier proposed regulation and sparking fierce backlash from industry groups that are likely to mount a challenge in court.

The EPA’s long-awaited rules for greenhouse gas emissions from power plants are here, but they still don’t address a major source of pollution.
