[misleading title]
This won't be the biggest step ever taken in the fight to combat anthropogenic climate change.
This will be the biggest step the US government has announced, but that's it.
e:consolidated phrasing
e2: Article tl;dr "Power plants account for 40% of US CO2 emissions. Obama wants to cut 32% of their CO2 emissions by 2030. "
Doing the math on this, this is a plan to decrease the US's CO2 emissions by less than a percent per year over the next 15 years.
