Really? People don't believe that cimate change is occurring? They don't believe that limiting pollution is a good thing. I know there has been some doubt as to the source or reason for climate change, but only a total nutbag denies it all together.
No we don't believe that co2 is pollution. If you do then kill yourself because you are polluting dear mother earth. Go away evil polluter.
Here in Ontario Canada we are in the process of closing down ALL of the coal burning generating plants. Who wants to take bets on if we will still have power or not when we flick a switch!!!!
There is no huge outcry here about closing those mega polluters down. The difference between closing them here and the USA is that here they are all "Crown corporations" owned by the taxpayer while in the USA they are owned by the likes of the Koch brothers and friends and they don't care if the entire country is poisoned, if it costs them anything to prevent it.
So the US will go back to stone age while we watch the other emerging countries continue their journey in industrialization.
The transformation of America. That has been the goal the entire time.........like many have said........and like the swooners continue to cheer on. They think they will be spared somehow. Useful idiots.

Do us a favour. Go and get a few big tanks of co2 and pipe it into your home to find out if it's poison or not! When you wake up dead then we can say, "Old Kerchief has proven a point for us"!!!!!!!!
Lead, arsenic and mercury helped destroy Rome and its rulers and claimed dynasties in India, China . Qin Wangde China's first emperor ate mercury compunds in an attempt to get immortal life he didn't get it! His tomb near Si'an had a chamber with a map of his Empire named Qin (Q sounds like Ch so Chin or China) with mercury rivers and lakes. The Chinese sealed this tomb up because the Mercury vapors were so high it was too dangerous to spend any time in it without a pressure (aerospace) suit.
And what does that have to do with the evil polluting co2?? Dear leader isn't trying to destroy utilities to stop lead arsenic and mercury it's to save the planet from co2. Can you even read?

Are you going to run you plants on maple syrup? You canucks are good at one thing.......syrup. Keep the spigot open I got some pancakes that need it in the morning. So do the Koch bro's.
Once again sticking it to the middle and lower class. Who will be paying for all this in the end. We all know but swooners don't care even though it's their children who will suffer. I wonder if China, the worlds number one polluter, is announcing the same garbage to destroy their economy? They aren't as stupid as Obama and his underlings.
"For months, environmentalists have been pressing the White House to regulate utilities powered by coal and natural gas, which account for a third of the nation’s greenhouse-gas emissions and 40 percent of its carbon output. Last year the Environmental Protection Agency proposed regulating greenhouse-gas emissions from new power plants, but it has delayed finalizing that rule.
According to individuals familiar with the White House plan, who asked not to be identified since the president has yet to deliver his speech, Obama will couch the effort not only in terms of the nation’s domestic priorities, but as a way to meet the administration’s international pledge to reduce the country’s greenhouse-gas emissions 17 percent below 2005 levels. According to an independent analysis by the World Resources Institute, the United States will need to regulate existing power plants and take other steps as well to meet that goal.
In Saturday’s statement, Obama emphasized the economic opportunities that could come from tackling carbon emissions.
“We’ll need scientists to design new fuels, and farmers to grow them,” he said. “We’ll need engineers to devise new sources of energy, and businesses to make and sell them.”"
Translation......... we need another stimulus so I can fund my green buddies crap companies with taxpayer money so when they fail my buddies will be able to steal whats left and move on.
The latest report I read says it is not just an "earth event". Every planet in our solar system is getting warmer at close to the same rate. The output from the sun has been getting warmer since the mid '70s, when they first began measuring it.
So, if our carbon released into the atmosphere is the cause, we'd better act fast or we'll be responsible for destroying the entire solar system.

Well if that's the case then we will have to fund trillions of dollars in space travel to go and paint those planets white to reflect the sunlight to save the gdam solar system!!!!
