And when the utilities are unable to provide enough electricity without the coal plants, they will be demonized for it, the better to have the Feds completely take over the whole system. Look for the RATS to start talking about the need for a “single provider system” for electricity.
Particulates are not that great. CO2 is good.
Thank you for pointing out such a cogent point...
So according to liberals I am sucking in pollution every time I breath...
The new rules he previewed on Saturday are only a draft, and they're not expected to be finalized until after the election.
There, fixed it.
How come the executive branch doesn’t have to take the economic impact into account when they do stuff (polite word) like this? Are they exempt from NEPA?
No, CO2 is harmful, but not at a fraction of one percent like you find outdoors. It takes far higher concentration to really cause immediate harm.
It’s usually the limiting factor in photosynthesis.
Make that breathing out not in....
If Hillary runs the socialists will vote for her and you will have another liberal acolyte of Saul Alinsky.
They have an agenda to grab all power and change to total socialism look how useless Obama has mad congress.
Obama&Co have trained the sheep well.
Actually when you exhale...Carbon Dioxide.
I tell all the liberals I know...buy stock in candles...
But what about Fukushima? But still, I get your point. That’s pretty much what France did out of their lack of coal and desire for attacking CO2 EMISSIONS. They turned overwhelmingly nuclear as their source of electricity. Which leads me to wonder if they ever had a serious accident.
In fairness, their hands are tied because the senate is controlled by the democrats. And they will never allow him to be impeached no matter what he does. Impeaching him now would be a huge waste of time, money, and political capitol.
>>”Today, about 40 percent of America’s carbon pollution comes from power plants. But right now, there are no national limits to the amount of carbon pollution that existing plants can pump into the air we breathe — none,” he said. “We limit the amount of toxic chemicals like mercury, sulfur, and arsenic that power plants put in our air and water. But they can dump unlimited amounts of carbon pollution into the air. It’s not smart, it’s not safe, and it doesn’t make sense.”
Bullsh!t. Pure LIES. Yes, Obama, YOU LIE!
It is true that “carbon” is not limited per se, but CO2, CO, and Opacity (soot) is very strictly monitored and limited by permit.
I used to work with CEMS (Continuous Emissions Monitoring System) in coal-fired power plants. The regulations are so strict that they are almost impossible to adhere to them all, but every power plant does, no matter what it costs.
I caught and corrected myself...unless I am really a pod person : )
Yep. Think of aborting the planet...
Might as well believe in flying unicorns that poop skittles.
The GOP leadership HAS ALREADY told the Democrats that they are going to revert all the dictatorial rules BACK to the way they were before so that the Democrats 'have some fairness'.
Here, I will let Mitch McConnell explain for you:
And then the Tea Party favorite Rand Paul:
REPUBLICANS SAY THEY'D RESTORE FILIBUSTER IF IN POWER
So understand that the GOP IS NOT going to stick it to Democrats and use Executive Authority or dictatorial power to get us back to where we should be Constitutionally.
They LIKE what Obama and the MarxoFascists have done - and they are going to protect them and aid their agenda to empower the government and destroy the republic.
He told us his intentions before he was elected.
WAKE UP AMERICA!!
sure hope the next president is not another liberal acolyte of Saul Alinsky
If it turns out that way then she’ll be the last POTUS.
And Congress sleeps on.
So now we know why the shares of two major coal companies fell so sharply on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday, registering new lows for the year.
And we also know how foolish it was for coal miners and their unions to support Barack Obama in his two presidential elections.
If ‘’carbon pollution’’ was one-tenth as harmful as the environmentalists claim, coal miners would be dead after working only a few years. Instead, they live and flourish long enough to expect to be awarded hefty union-secured pensions, which they will no longer be able to receive once Obama’s law destroys the coal companies and their pension funds.
