We are just one (or 2) justices away from leftist destruction. The next president will make this go one way or the other for many years.

The ruling only states that costs must be a consideration. If the EPA consideration order is all grey-area and not strictly defined it will be twisted to mean “Ya, we looked at it and considered it and we consider it moot”

Doesn't matter.
Unlike us, Obola has a constitutional right to ignore SCOTUS rulings he doesn't like.

so all the EPA needs to do is half-ass slap together a “cost estimate”, and they are golden. $1.4 Trillion sounds like a reasonable number.

From the decision:
Held: EPA interpreted §7412(n)(1)(A) unreasonably when it deemed cost irrelevant to the decision to regulate power plants. Pp. 515.
(a) Agency action is unlawful if it does not rest on a consideration of the relevant factors. Motor Vehicle Mfrs. Assn. of United States,
Inc. v. State Farm Mut. Automobile Ins. Co., 463 U. S. 29, 43. Even under the deferential standard of Chevron U. S. A. Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U. S. 837, which directs courts to accept an agencys reasonable resolution of an ambiguity in a statute that the agency administers, id., at 842843, EPA strayed well beyond the bounds of reasonable interpretation in concluding that cost is not a factor relevant to the appropriateness of regulating power plants. Pp. 56.
(b) Appropriate and necessary is a capacious phrase. Read naturally against the backdrop of established administrative law, this phrase plainly encompasses cost. It is not rational, never mind appropriate, to impose billions of dollars in economic costs in return for a few dollars in health or environmental benefits. Statutory context supports this reading. Section 7412(n)(1) required the EPA to conduct three studies, including one that reflects concern about cost, see §7412(n)(1)(B); and the Agency agrees that the term appropriate and necessary must be interpreted in light of all three studies. Pp. 69.
(c) EPAs counterarguments are unpersuasive. That other Clean Air Act provisions expressly mention cost only shows that §7412(n)(1)(A)s broad reference to appropriateness encompasses multiple relevant factors, one of which is cost. Similarly, the modest principle of Whitman v. American Trucking Assns., Inc., 531 U. S. 457when the Clean Air Act expressly directs EPA to regulate on the basis of a discrete factor that does not include cost, the Act should not be read as implicitly allowing consideration of cost anywayhas no bearing on this case. Furthermore, the possibility of considering cost at a later stage, when deciding how much to regulate power plants, does not establish its irrelevance at this stage. And although the Clean Air Act makes cost irrelevant to the initial decision to regulate sources other than power plants, the whole point of having a separate provision for power plants was to treat power plants differently. Pp. 912.
(d) EPA must consider costincluding cost of compliancebefore deciding whether regulation is appropriate and necessary. It will be up to the Agency to decide (as always, within the limits of reasonable interpretation) how to account for cost. Pp. 1215.
748 F. 3d 1222, reversed and remanded.
