Supreme Court Limits , EPA's Authority To Regulate , Power Plant Emissions.
On June 30, the Supreme Court limited
the Environmental Protection Agency's ability
to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from power plants.
'Time' reports that the ruling
delivered a significant blow
to the fight against climate change.

According to 'Time,' power plants account for approximately 30% of carbon dioxide output.
President Joe Biden has pledged
to cut greenhouse gas emissions in
the U.S. in half by the end of the decade.
His ambitious goal includes having an emissions-free power sector by 2035. .
The Supreme Court's decision could
complicate the Biden administration's
strategy for fighting climate change. .
The fight against broader EPA authority to regulate
carbon output was supported by prominent businesses,
including Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Tesla. .
'Time' reports that a recent
United Nations panel warned that , the effects of climate change , are about to worsen.
According to the U.N. report, those changes
will make the world sicker, hungrier, poorer
and more dangerous in the near future

We have to codify Roe v. Wade in the law, and the way to do that is to make sure the Congress votes to do that, President Joe Biden, via 'The New York Times'.
And if the filibuster gets in the way, it’s like voting rights, we provide an exception for this, or an exception to the filibuster for this action, President Joe Biden, via 'The New York Times'.

Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade.

Monkeypox Vaccines
Will Soon Be Available, in States With High Rates.
Enhanced measures aimed at curtailing the spread of monkeypox were announced by the
Biden administration on June 28.
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky.
... the allocation will focus on men who have sex with men and those who may have been exposed anonymously.
Vaccination after exposure, or using vaccines for post-exposure prophylaxis, is meant to reduce your risk of becoming infected with a monkeypox virus and then become sick. , Dr. Rochelle Walensky, CDC Director, via CNN.
Vaccination should occur
within two weeks of a
possible exposure. , Dr. Rochelle Walensky, CDC Director, via CNN.
And the sooner you can get vaccinated after the exposure, the better, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, CDC Director, via CNN.
There are currently just over 300 reported cases
of monkeypox in the U.S., but experts say the actual number is much higher.
The vaccine rollout may hit some snags, as there are fewer doses of the newer Jynneos vaccine available.
Health professionals say the older vaccine, ACAM, requires training to administer and is not safe for those who have HIV.
It's critical that we get vaccine out to the at-risk population and approach, vaccine use much as we've approached the pre exposure prophylaxis for HIV, Dr. Michael Osterholm, University of Minnesota, via CNN.
1.25 million more
doses of the Jynneos
vaccine will soon
be available.
As soon as we have more vaccines available, we will of course continue to expand
from a post-exposure
prophylaxis strategy, ideally
to a pre-exposure
prophylaxis strategy, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, CDC Director, via CNN
