How Does EPA to roll back Obama-era emissions Work?

The EPA is like a rules maker for how dirty air can be, and rolling back means changing old rules to make things less strict.

Imagine you're playing a game where you have to keep your room clean. Your mom (the EPA) sets the rules that say you can't throw too many toys on the floor, that’s like emissions limits. These rules were made during Obama's time, and they helped make sure factories didn’t puff out too much smoky air.

Now, the new team in charge wants to let more toys on the floor, so they change the rule book (that’s what rolling back means). It’s like saying you can have more mess before your mom asks you to clean up. This makes it easier for factories to run but might mean we breathe in a little more smoky air.

Sometimes, rules are changed because they think the old ones were too strict, just like how sometimes you get to keep more toys on the floor if you promise to clean up later.

This change helps big companies save money, but it means our air might be a tiny bit dirtier for now.
