The regulation is projected to do more to lower emissions than any previous measure, making it among the [most significant climate regulations in the nation’s history](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRn3d88P0TfaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMy8yMC9jbGltYXRlL2JpZGVuLXBoYXNlLW91dC1nYXMtY2Fycy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMzIwJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExODExMSZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTYxMzMyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0Qgpl-zxa-2Uv62cAUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~). Under the new rule, automakers would be required to meet tough average limits on tailpipe emissions across their product lines: They could sell some E.V.s and some gas cars, but if they fail to meet the standard, they would face a hefty penalty. The Environmental Protection Agency projected that the new measure would eliminate more than seven billion tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere over 30 years — more than all the greenhouse gases the U.S. produces in a year. The rule is [less forceful than some environmentalists would like](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRn3d88P4QGAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjQvMDMvMjAvYnVzaW5lc3MvbmV3LXJ1bGVzLXdpbGwtc3RpbGwtcHVzaC1jYXJtYWtlcnMtdG8tc2VsbC1tb3JlLWVsZWN0cmljLWNhcnMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9uZV8yMDI0MDMyMCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTgxMTEmbmw9dGhlLWV2ZW5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE2MTMzMiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZfs8WvtlL-tnAFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD), but it is still expected to speed an enormous industry transformation. Last year, E.V.s made up just 7.6 percent of U.S. car sales, far from the new regulation’s target. Donald Trump, who has weaponized E.V.s in his White House bid, has vowed to reverse President Biden’s climate rules, and recently accused him of destroying the country’s automotive industry. The rule is expected to face a legal challenge by fossil fuel companies and Republican attorneys general and [its fate could be decided by the Supreme Court](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRn3d88P0TlaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMy8yMC9jbGltYXRlL2JpZGVuLWNsZWFuLWNhci1ydWxlLWtleS1mYWN0cy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMzIwJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExODExMSZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTYxMzMyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0Qgpl-zxa-2Uv62cAUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~).

The judges, who did not immediately issue a ruling, appeared split. One judge seemed to favor the Biden administration’s argument that it was the federal government’s authority to enforce immigration policies; another appeared likely to favor Texas. The back-and-forth has left both law enforcement officials and migrants confused about what to expect.

All of us know what aging typically looks like, but less understood is what exactly is happening inside our bodies that causes the physical decline.

They are playful, intelligent and get bored quickly. To keep them happy, both parents and bird owners sometimes turn to screens. The parrots are better at children’s mobile games than you might expect, and [quickly tap on objects as they appear](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRn3d88P0TdaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMy8yMC9zY2llbmNlL3BhcnJvdHMtcGV0LXZpZGVvZ2FtZXMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9uZV8yMDI0MDMyMCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTgxMTEmbmw9dGhlLWV2ZW5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE2MTMzMiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZfs8WvtlL-tnAFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD). A new study suggests that similar apps could be a great enrichment tool for them, but developers should make sure the games are designed to be licked.

Flesch reading score measures how complex a text is. The lower the score, the more difficult the text is to read. The Flesch readability score uses the average length of your sentences (measured by the number of words) and the average number of syllables per word in an equation to calculate the reading ease. Text with a very high Flesch reading ease score (about 100) is straightforward and easy to read, with short sentences and no words of more than two syllables. Usually, a reading ease score of 60-70 is considered acceptable/normal for web copy.
