Remember the smog alerts growing up and how horrible it was, thanks to the gov’t regulations the air quality is much,much better today. That goes for entities such as cal-osha also, protecting injured workers!! The private sector big business and corporations need to be watched 24/7!!! Just look at what they try to put in your food.

Only the most self-absorbed, self-important would believe that man is responsible for the warming and cooling that naturally takes place. But then again, it’s not about the environment – it’s really about finding another avenue to control, tax and regulate.

All you “Deliverance” types are still thriving!

Carbon reduction is your friend….

1) It plays into their narrative of “less carbon = good”.
2) They also get to claim their plan to shut down coal-fired electric generating plants is working, at least in part (e.g. http://thedc.com/OrCyCJ).
