NiSource, the parent company of Northern Indiana Public Service Company, said that it remains committed to reducing carbon emissions despite the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling.
NiSource, the parent company of Northern Indiana Public Service Company, the region’s largest utility, also said in a statement that it remains committed to reducing carbon emissions despite the ruling.“Our main concern is what this means now and for future rulings.
“In response to the recent Supreme Court decision, this is yet another demonstration of the consequences of our elections. I will continue to work with my colleagues in Congress to ensure that the EPA has the resources they need to assess and mitigate the real and evolving risks to our environment,” he said.
The Supreme Court ruling on Thursday “is a devastating ruling and setback for climate change action,” said Kelly Eskew, a clinical professor of business law and ethics at the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University-Bloomington. “We create administrative agencies, and we fill them with experts, to regulate sectors of our economy because we want experts to make the rules. They have the knowledge of what needs to be done, and this ruling by the Supreme Court moves us towards a nonexpert regulation,” Eskew said.
State-level regulation is still possible, Eskew said, but it’s also possible that a person or business would sue a state for potential action it takes.
