My point is - W called for it several years ago, and everyone was making fun of him. Now we need what he was calling for. I agree that it should not be up to the government, but he did see the need in 2003. I have heard nothing about it from anyone.
We should be repealing most enviro laws, not all, but most. The USA has done a good job of controlling, and cleaning up, pollution and pollution damage. However, in the 1970s we started going overboard because the communists co-opted the environmentalists movement and corrupted it.
Get rid of the EPA, relax most rules on building nukes, stop banning drilling, stop the ban on coal use and shale oil use. Let the industry roll. We will better off in the long run.
