Whenever a government or a corporation doesn’t want to do something, it blames China. You want fair terms of trade? Sorry, not when China’s [...]
USA To Regulate Power Station CO2 Emissions
The move would mean coal-fired power plants would be unlikely to receive the go-ahead without developing Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology [ or use our Black Box CO2 Emission Reduction Technology refer http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/black-box ] . It could also open up heavy polluters to legal action by those who say they are affected by CO2 emissions.
Road transport has biggest long-term impact on global warming says EU
Emissions from transport affect the climate both in the short and long term. New research explored the size and mix of emissions with short and long-lived effects and found that road transport has the largest effect on global mean temperature. The study conducted under the EU-funded QUANTIFY project compared the effects of current emissions from road, air, rail and shipping. The study explored the effects of emissions from a single year over different time periods and found that emissions from road transport have the most impact in the long term (20-100 years).
EPA Urged To Act On Climate Change
In Massachusetts v. EPA, the Supreme Court ruled that — contrary to the agency’s claim — EPA has the authority to regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. The court also held that the agency could not refuse to use that authority based on the agency’s policy preferences. Instead, the EPA would have to decide, based on the science, whether it believed that greenhouse gas emissions were posing dangers to public health or welfare. If the agency determined that endangerment was occurring, the agency would have to start the process of setting emission standards for greenhouse gases. In late 2007, EPA officials sent a proposed endangerment determination to the White House as an e-mail attachment, but White House officials refused to open the document, and former EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson refused repeated requests to make the document public.
