Back when CO2 was declared a regulated pollutant, I said here that this was a good development. Because the EPA rules require that the agency prove that a material is hazardous before it can be regulated. This is the process that was abrogated back when Clinton declared second hand smoke to be a Class A Carcinogen.

This could finally be the thing that results in a rigorous, real examination of all this Global Warming nonsense. If so, it will be a very welcome development.

Agreed, but I don't trust that the science “proving” it will be more rigorous than the one proving DDT’s environmental damage.

Have you been to the EPA website? They still celebrate Rachel Carson as the inspiration for the Agency.
