Not Everyone Can Be a Decider Timing of EPA decision on vehicle greenhouse-gas regulation still a mystery		05 Mar 2008	News
Posted at 10:18 AM on 05 Mar 2008 When will the U.S. EPA decide whether to regulate vehicle greenhouse-gas emissions? EPA head Stephen Johnson testified in the Senate Tuesday that he just couldn't say, even though it's been nearly a year since the agency was directed by the Supreme Court to make that decision. When asked whether any EPA staffers were currently working on the issue, Johnson s ...

Whaling and Gnashing of Teeth Norway says whale consumption is good for the planet		04 Mar 2008	News
Posted at 4:53 PM on 04 Mar 2008 Eating whale meat is better for the planet than eating beef, pork, or chicken, according to a comparative carbon-emissions calculation by Norwegian lobbying group the High North Alliance. Says the alliance's Rune Froevik, in what may be a bit of an exaggeration, "Basically it turns out that the best thing you can do for the planet is to eat whale meat compared to other types ...

The League of Extraordinary Conditions EPA releases unconvincing justification for denying California waiver		29 Feb 2008	News
Posted at 9:54 AM on 29 Feb 2008 For the long wait that preceded it, the U.S. EPA's just-released justification for disallowing California to regulate vehicle greenhouse-gas emissions is rather anticlimactic. The 48-page document argues that California lacks the "compelling and extraordinary conditions" required for special regulatory permission, because the rest of the nation ...

Cap and Evade Companies not following through on pledge to lobby for carbon reduction		22 Feb 2008	News
Posted at 12:48 PM on 22 Feb 2008 Companies participating in the U.S. Climate Action Partnership have pledged to lobby for a mandatory cap on U.S. carbon emissions, but -- and there's always a but -- many of those same corporations are working behind the scenes to undermine greenhouse-gas regulation. Just a few examples: USCAP members General Electric and Caterpillar sit on the board of a group called the Cente ...

How Crude Midwest refineries source more crude from tar sands; emissions will rise		12 Feb 2008	News
Posted at 12:39 PM on 12 Feb 2008 Emissions from Midwest oil refineries are expected to jump by up to 40 percent in the next 10 years, thanks in large part to an industry-wide trend of sourcing crude oil from Canada's tar sands. The sands produce petroleum of such poor quality that it requires more energy -- and thus more pollution -- to process it into usable fuel. The trend flies in the face of national and regi ...

Urban Legends Cities run into roadblocks in attempts to reduce CO2		08 Feb 2008	News
Posted at 8:21 AM on 08 Feb 2008 Announcing an ambitious plan to reduce a city's greenhouse gases is the easy part; when it comes to putting goals into action, local officials tend to run up against significant roadblocks. To take just a few examples: The subprime mortgage crisis has left taxpayers across the country unable to fund efficiency-minded proposals. Across the country, homeowners' associations have vetoed plans for ho ...

Full of Mitt Romney flip-flops, does not support California CO2 waiver		05 Feb 2008	News
Posted at 9:39 AM on 05 Feb 2008 Remember how Mitt Romney joined with the other GOP presidential candidates in appearing to support California in its quest to gain a waiver from the U.S. EPA to allow it to regulate vehicle CO2 emissions? How Romney said, and we quote, "I side with states being able to make their own decisions, even if I don't always agree with the decisions they make"? Well, the Mittster, a fervent ...
