    GreenMom - and your green sisters, brothers and fathers who are at EPA.  Is that the answer - waiting it out for another 12 months, plus the transition time?  Perhaps you in your cubicles have more power than you think. . . There's incredible power in collective action - far more than another street rally or the rest of us flogging each other to "write your senator and congressman." As if.

    So California and Massachusetts and others will sue and they will win because based on prior EPA waivers for California there is no legal justification for denying this waiver - but at what cost to tax payers. And of course that means more delay. And more inefficient cars and trucks get built and sold that will then be on the roads, polluting for years to come. Remember, California's rule - and all the other states along with California - was scheduled to become effective next fall, with the 2009 model year. EPA's rules don't go into effect until 2012? That is not acceptable. There is simply no more time to waste.  

    No, I think its time for direct action. We need the courage of our convictions. On Analysis of the EPA's decision to deny California's waiver posted 1 year, 11 months ago 15 Responses

    I am literally shocked by how outrageous and disgusting this decision is. At what point do we conclude that our Constitution and our civil rights are truly at risk? This EPA decision is defying the courts and the will of the people.

    I'm pleased that after 30 years this country finally got the gumption to improve the CAFE standards. But they fall far short of what California mandated.On Analysis of the EPA's decision to deny California's waiver posted 1 year, 11 months ago 15 Responses
