    People realize that the EPA includes a lot of other green house gases in their list right? If the EPA can control them all, it’s going to be pretty scary. Example: Methane(produced by cows yes, but also rice – one of the largest causes of green house gas in the word) and water vapor. Not to mention that the EPA literally said that if congress doesn’t pass the law the EPA will do it anyway. Why even have a congress anymore with organizations as powerful as the EPA, FDA, FCC, etc?

    Science class in high school teaches you what pollutes the air… Remember, those people at the front of the classroom saying words about a specific subject for intellectual absorbing?

    You can’t believe everything you hear in a high school science class. Don’t forget, they tried to tell us that we came from Australopithecus Afarensis too. Admittedly, sometimes looking at government can lend a little credence to the belief that we came from monkeys, but you get my point.

    Why even sponsor this bill? To say to the corporate sponsors “well, at least we tried.” This bill is far from the reasonable center of the debate, and there is clearly a better use of our legislative calendar. Ugh.

    I agree wit the last comment. This bill goes against everything the supreme court said in 2007 Mass vs EPA. The endangerment finding has already been pronounced. It is shameful that our elected officials are spending their time so poorly in Congress. Clearly there was no discussion of the medical evidence documenting the human health implications of nitrous oxides, or of the relevant science that links HFC’s in destroying ozone layers or in CH4 of CO2 in perpetuating climate change.

    When they changed the clean air act in 2005 they gave big oil an exemption to it. And by doing so, paved the way for the fracking for natural gas and oil to begin. How many wells and waterways have been contaminated? And now the idea that we’re going to say greenhouse gasses are not pollutants? Are you kidding me? To ignore the science and the international community of human kind is bad enough. Now you want to amend the Clean Air Act to say that CO2 is not a pollutant? As a nation, we should be ashamed and outraged. Whomever votes for this should have their head examined.

    How is Sen. Scott Brown [R, MA] on both opposing and supporting sides of the bill. Also, it doesn’t seem like the supporting side is being honest about how much they received money wise.

    Even into the prison yard the breeze had brought the fresh vivifying air from the fields. But in the corridor the air was laden with the germs of typhoid, the smell of sewage, putrefaction, and tar; every newcomer felt sad and dejected in it. The woman warder felt this, north face outlet store though she was used to bad air. She had just come in from outside, and entering the corridor, she at once became sleepy.She carried herself very straight, expanding her full bosom.
