Washington Post: As we watch the new GOP-controlled Congress clash over the Keystone XL pipeline, its rather depressing to realize that this is just the beginning of the pitched, drag-out battles to come over climate change in the next two years. Even bigger than Keystone XL is the coming fight over the Environmental Protection Agencys plans to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from older coal-fired power plants, known as the Clean Power Plan. Republicans hate it; to them it epitomizes everything they despise...
