EPA: Greenhouse gases endanger human health
YAHOO ^ | 12/7/09 | DINA CAPPIELLO and H. JOSEF HEBERT

WASHINGTON – Officials tell The Associated Press that the Environmental Protection Agency has concluded greenhouse gases are endangering people's health and must be regulated. The EPA will announced its findings at a news conference Monday. The announcement is timed to boost the Obama administration's arguments at an international climate conference — beginning this week — that the United States is taking actions to combat global warming, even though Congress has yet to act on climate legislation. Under a Supreme Court ruling, the so-called endangerment finding is needed before the EPA can regulate carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases released from power plants, factories and automobiles under the federal Clean Air Act.

I'm more worried about God. By declaring CO2 a pollutant , doesn't that mean that by creating us in his image, The EPA is calling God a polluter?

“Meanwhile it needs to be emphasized...CO2 represents only 0.038% of Earth’s atmosphere... On Mars, which is still well below freezing at its tropics...the CO2 composition is 98%....”

Not only that, but it should also be remembered that (including water vapor) humanity’s contribution to total “greenhouse gasses” is less than 0.02%.

Of COURSE the government needs to wreck the economy, intrude into every American’s life, and send billions and billions of dollars overseas!

Personally, I think 0 is about to see “change” that he neither predicted or desired... ;-)

No fan of jurisprudential action, I. However, it is my fond hope that the judiciary in every state be filled to overflowing with suits challenging EPA and the entire global warming scam.

Trying to snow at the lower elevations here in Amador county. Down in Ione and Plymouth it is slushy and just a little higher it is real snow. Yep, a whole lot of global warming in Northern California today!

The FRaud that is all about control, nothing else.

Those who buy into this scam of a hoax leave a far different world for their children than the one today, imperfect as it is, to their children.

Insanity rules.

I’ve been using an asthma inhaler for a long time, before they switched to the stupid HFA, and I’m still alive.

I truly hate this government with a disturbing passion.

I have 10 inches of fresh snow.

It's probably frozen carbon dioxide. Stay inside or you'll die for sure.

Not in our area, and my wife didn’t see any driving to work.

Thursday may be the snow day.

Not to mention we’re carbon-based entities to start with.

This is de-industrialization, de-population, global slavery.

Read these, consider the sources:

I have told a few individuals being hammered on their bottom line due to Californiacator’s Green Facists and the Federal Green Facists, they need to start class action suits. Then they need to invite their custormers/clients, people like us to sign up for the class action suits.

I guess the envirowachos think that if they ignore it, the outting of whole global fraud will go away. They’re doing the same with Onada’s citizenship. And they’re desperately trying to pretend the economy is on the rebound. Of course,there is no credible evidence to support these positions. But what the heck, the intention is all that counts.
