During Tuesday’s Afternoon trade, Shares of Peabody Energy Corporation (NYSE:BTU), lost -2.75% to $1.06.
Peabody Energy, urged further action by courts, Congress, states, consumer groups and industrial/residential electricity customers to turn back the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) rules to reduce carbon dioxide emissions on electricity generating plants.
Studies show the rules will punish American families and businesses with higher energy costs and damage electric reliability, while having no notable benefit even under climate theory. They would put our energy system at serious risk and further slow our nation’s tepid economic growth. A technology path – not artificial caps and taxes – is the far better approach to address carbon concerns over time.
Peabody Energy Corporation offers mining of coal. The company operates through Western U.S. Mining, Midwestern U.S. Mining, Australian Mining, Trading and Brokerage, and Corporate and Other segments.
