Well when the regime does everything it can to destroy prosperity, when the President is the 1st modern President to leave the country poorer after 4 years in office, no surprise emissions are down.

Obama killed the economy...so no one is producing anything and there’s no energy being consumed. That’s why CO2 emissions went down so fast.

CO2 might be down, but CO is WAY, WAY UP.

If Obama would just STFU.

HEY! KEVIN BEGOS!

You wrote “ - - - and CO2 levels globally are rising, not falling.”

This is curious because NOWHERE in your article do you mention what the MEASURED CO2 Levels are for the US.

Fancy headline that CO2 emissions drop, but nothing on measured CO2 Levels.

For example, did US measured CO2 level go up due to the drought killing off the corn, and thus leaving more CO2 in the air instead of in cornstalks?

NEXT time you write an article, give us some facts, MEASURED facts.

Additionally, the nation has shuddered 9 Gigawatts of coal power production in 2012 and an additional 12 Gigawatts by 2015. This is nor a good thing folks. There will be severe consequences if we have any kind of recovery. All of this lost power production is not being replaced and what is being replaced is being replaced by Natural Gas burning plants, gas is cheap now but it will not be true for long.

Liberalism is all about the seen, not the unseen. For Progressives, logic barely dents the frontal eminence. The consequences of communism are for the little people.

Shutting down thousands of businesses an un-employing 20% of the work force might have a little to do with that, huh?
