So you're saying this is a lie:
Despite a reduction in U.S. emissions over the past decade, the Obama administration has announced plans to impose expensive greenhouse gas regulations on new and existing power plants, in addition to a suite of costly new power rules already proposed or issued by EPA.
No, it’s not a lie.
But the article implies that there is only the stick of regulations causing the drop in coal-fired plants. When the carrot of relatively lower gas prices has at least as much to do with it.
IOW, there are several factors to the equation, as there are in most.
