We have pretty darned good emissions standards on vehicles now and the CAFE standards should go up as mandated,but California should relax its diesel standards as they USLD fuel and the advent of carbon traps reduce particulate emissions which are only bad for our health in big proportions and not causing any greenhouse effect.California supposedly has many higher learning institutions,but nary a one of them has a proper climate/earth science man to provide the government there with solid facts and not observations and the resultant theories.Californians are beating the political landscape to death and extracting massive amounts of cash out of the economy,just as the war on so called self inflicted terrorism is doing.You folks who continue to support the egregiously flawed greenhouse theory and please remember what the word theory implies are creating economic terrorism and I would like it to stop.Wake up you guys before the egg completely dries on your faces when the "Sun cycle" we are experiencing now abates in a few short years and you folks could have been fighting a much smarter fight.We need to get the coal plants out of the world,that should be first folks,and its about the acid and mercury guys and not the carbon.Coal plants add 40 percent of the pollutants to the atmosphere.The relatively clean cars add relatively little in comparison and jet aircraft make most of the haze in our skies,when did I last see you guys calling for a halt to those serious amounts of hydrocarbons emitting??Why not jump on the massive national train bandwagon and put your efforts where we really need them???
