EAST CHINA TOWNSHIP, Mich.—America's greenhouse gas emissions are declining, in large part thanks to the transformations taking place in communities like this one on the Ontario-Michigan border.

Coal freighters arriving from the Great Lakes have long plied the St. Clair River, which serves as the boundary between the U.S. and Canada here, feeding a pair of coal plants on the American side. The two plants, separated by 3 miles, help form the backbone of DTE Energy Co.'s generating fleet. They power the factories that churn out Fords and Chevrolets in Detroit, some 50 miles to the south.
