DE-FUND the EPA. States have their departments on environmental matters. EPA is not needed. EPA has turned into bullies and even got slapped down by the SCOTUS more than once for abusing power.

Guest • 10 years ago

The EPA is requiring biofuels at a rate that isn't even physically possible, killing coal energy and on obamachoom... Send the whole department pink slips.

Barry could careless is every engine to every vehicle, airplane, boat, farm machinery, construction machinery, or every tool was ruined by too high levels of ethanol. Barry and Mooochelle won't be affected. Barry and Moooochelle will have transportation for the rest of their lives provided by the tax payers.

The best part is that "biofuels" don't even reduce pollution. Burning carbon is still burning carbon!

"ERICE, SICILY – It’s official. The scare is over. http://wattsupwiththat.com/... The World Federation of Scientists, at its annual seminars on planetary emergencies, has been advised by its own climate monitoring panel that global warming is no longer a"planetary emergency". http://notrickszone.com/201... Even one of IPCCs top scientists Von Storch is conceding that despite the rise in CO2 the earth is just not warming as the climate models predicted.http://www.spiegel.de/internat...

Coal is not "dirty" Coal is good. People who believe otherwise should go live in a pre industrialized society. No need to shut down America's coal industry http://www.amazon.com/dp/09..."If you want to see what “dirty” looks like, go to a country that is still living in “natural,” pre-industrial times. Try choking on the natural smoke of a natural open fire burning natural wood or animal dung… Try getting your water from a local brook that is naturally infested with the natural germs of all the local animals… [p. 4]We’re taught to think of our environment as something that starts out healthy and then we make dirty. The opposite is true. Nature does not give us a healthy, sanitary environment to live in. Try keeping your home environment clean without “unnatural” indoor plumbing, sewer systems, and garbage collection. [p. 18]Nature does not provide us with… the environment we need to live long, healthy, happy lives; hence the historical life expectancy of 30. [p. 22]"
http://nofrakkingconsensus....

As to green energy being so great Germany’s experience after spending a trillions of euros is that their coal consumption has gone up and so has CO2 emissions have gone up. http://notrickszone.com/201...

http://notrickszone.com/201...

Moreover, in Germany where a trillion euro were squandered on renewable energy, energy became a luxury item only the rich could afford. http://www.spiegel.de/inter... Energy Poverty: How Electricity Became a Luxury Good

Time to stop the AGW scam and spend our limited resources on resolving real problems not imaginary ones.

there is 10% corn ethanol in my tank-goverment gas! That is all i need to know about the EPA. Silly rabbit-FOOD IS NOT FUEL!!!!!

HHAMM • 10 years ago

Ethanol costs tax payers over 50 cents a gallon. I don't know but I will bet That a lot of members of congress benefit from the tax dollars that support the ethanol industry. And it is hard on the environment to produce it!

Guest2 • 10 years ago

It's also hard on cars... in my area (Hampton Roads, VA) they caught some gas stations who put more than 10% ethanol in their gas, because it was causing permanent damage to people's engines,

Also, that crap STINKS worse than pure gasoline!

The Climate Science Capitulation Begins…Hans von Storch: “We Definitely Have Seen Less Warming Than Expected”
Georg Ehring of German Public Radio conducted an interview with climate scientist Professor Hans von Storch, Director of the German Coastal Research Center.

The introductory text before the interview reads as follows:

The Earth has warmed considerably less than expected over the past 15 years days, says Hans von Storch. That may be due to an unforeseeable climate variability, or that CO2′s effect as a greenhouse gas was over-estimated, so says the meteorologist of the Coastal Research Institute.

If anything, this interview shows that German climate science is beginning a slow shift and that warmist scientists starting to come to terms with the real possibility that they have been wrong all these years – possibly very wrong. It also shows that they are admitting that climate is poorly understood. The science in nowhere near understood, let alone settled.

Imagine if Saudi Arabia imposed the same regulations on their fossil fuel industry Obama and the EPA are imposing on America's fossil fuel industry? The Saudi Arabia oil Sheiks would not be in power too long, the people of their Nation would all be living in tents and not in millions dollar mansions and they would not be spreading their radical Wahhabi Muslim ideology around the world. So the question is what does Obama hope to achieve by waging a regulatory war on America's fossil fuel industry? Maybe he thinks his lap dog media will cover for him and his Warmist's extremists so they can stay in power. Stay in power using the excuse Obama is "saving the earth from Climate Change. Or maybe he wants to lower the standard of living of the poor in America (he claims to be on the side of) to make the poor even more dependent on his government hand outs. Or maybe he wants to turn America into a third rate power with no influence on world affairs. Saudi Arabia, Russia and China would certainly be happy by this change of fortune in American power and economic dominance. So what is Obama's end game here. It cannot be pure save the earth from the trace gas CO2 extremist ideology. Even one of IPCCs top scientists Von Storch is conceding that despite the rise in CO2 the earth is just not warming as the climate models predicted. http://www.spiegel.de/inter...
So just what is Obama's motivationfor waging a war on America's fossil fuel industry?

Defiant • 10 years ago

They use every instance of inclement weather to bolster their theory, yet remain silent when their predictions fail to produce any verifiable results. All of this fear mongering is designed to lure the gullible masses into giving up what little conveniences they have in exchange for the privilege of paying a carbon tax that will at last finance the United Nations, and further enrich the wealthy elite. They must be stopped !

I bought that DVD (for those of you unfamiliar with the picture, it's from "The Road"), but it scared the crap out of me so bad I couldn't finish watching it.

The EPA has wrecked industry in America and sent it to the new Armpit of the World...China

Ronald Nelson • 10 years ago

The Supreme court is stacked with liberal activist judges... they have already ruled that the EPA has the authority to regulate 'green house gasses'. Just how these 17 State's are going to argue that they are not... and that the State's are is beyond me.

What is needed is a complete overhaul of the EPA and that will take turning the SENATE from its liberal leadership. We must get a VETO proof Senate and House if we are going to save this country from Obama. It doesn't look good folks.

If Coal is no longer a available to produce electricity... the cost of electricity may double. That would kill what little industry America has and cause most individuals to abandon air conditioning and electric heat for their homes. It will also drive up all the costs of other sources of energy... natural gas and green energy sources... all sources of energy will drastically increase. Energy is the life blood of a modern society.

This Administration is working to shut down America... too, kill it. It is time that Congress acts. It is time that the States act... to protect the interest of their citizens. The political leadership must MOBILIZE the people to march on DC ... it is time that our State and Federal Representatives look out side the box for solutions to brake the grid lock in Congress. They must mobilize the power of the people too effectively challenge this Administration.

This whole "Global Warming" hoax is finally coming to an end as there is so much solid information that the figures and statistics were fraudulently manipulated and more information is coming out on a weekly basis. The people that engineered this fraud should be charged criminally and made to face a judge. All of the EPA regulations created by this false premise should be lifted at the very least and every law or policy that resulted from this fraud should be repealed. If nothing happens, the people of this country should donate money and file a class action suit against these entities and individuals who perpetrated this huge economic disaster that they placed on this country as well as its industry. If nothing else, it reveals the gullibilty of the liberal community and Democrat Party officials in general. It is time to get to work.

The states created the federal government. They didn't trust it to begin with, and the preamble to the bill of rights stipulates that the purpose of the bill of rights was tell the federal government that it was limited to the powers enumerated in the constitution. Which is why they wrote bill of rights. The federal governments powers are enumerated, and do not exist beyond that. The ninth and tenth speak to that. The EPA has no constitutional authority to even exist, or conduct a reign of tyranny on the states.

Accuse? ACCUSE? Convictions can be made solely on circumstantial evidence.
If I were on a Jury I would have seen enough to convict the whole administration and every scandal they are working on for treason. I'd also convict Barney Frank and Chris Dodd for the housing bubble.
Reid,Pelosi give me a break.
The hearings are a joke. We need Nuremberg style trials to satisfy this American.
Our Federal Government needs to be cut down to size.
YESTERDAY. They have their nose in everything they do.
So many laws that all of us are unwitting criminals if they want us to be!

Hey the vile name caller is back. Names instead of intelligence.

You do know global warming was just another liberal Unicorn riding hoax that has failed, just like global freezing in the 70's. Dontcha?

So we went from Global Freezing, to global warming to climate change and liberals will now have to pivot back to Global freezing with the earth cooling and the Arctic Ice Caps growing by 60% just in the last year.

You guys are just feel so useless without some doom and gloom hysterical save the world scam doncha.
