The Obama folks are plowing through with their own global warming agenda come hell, high water, or barely changing water. Share the facts at CFACT.org: cfact.org/?p=23719 As the delegates at COP 20 in Lima continue to debate and dialogue as to what form a new climate pact should take - the Obama administration isnt waiting for any such details to be settled by international bureaucrats. No, just as it has shown disdain for elected representatives in Congress, the Obama folks are plowing through with their own agenda come hell or high water. Guided by ideology and ties to radical green groups, it is already unleashing its EPA on American families and businesses to severely restrict our nations carbon emissions. This, as CFACT has warned about repeatedly, will drive up energy costs and send businesses to places like China - which despite the Presidents recent so-called breakthrough agreement doesnt have to cut any emissions til 2030. Added to this EPA onslaught against carbon now comes an equally onerous regulations concerning ozone. As reported by CFACT policy analyst Paul Driessen in a recent Investors Business Daily commentary, it was only in May 2012 that EPA decided which U.S. counties met its 2008 ozone standards, which cut allowable ground-level ozone levels from 80 parts per billion (ppb) to 75 ppb (equivalent to 75 seconds in 32 years). Now EPA wants to slash allowable levels even further: to 70 or even 60 ppb, which many researchers say is below natural ozone levels. Even Jackson Hole and Teton County, Wyoming could be out of compliance, mostly due to emissions from pine trees. Such over-regulation is killing Americas competitiveness with much of the world. Sadly, it is also doing absolutely nothing to help the environment or human health. The EPA needs to be reigned in, and I urge you to read Pauls complete article in IBD to get all the facts about this particular outrage.
