EPA Protects Environment
This should not be a news item, but it has been popping up on green news sites and pages all over in the last couple of days.The EPA has said that greenhouse gases are dangerous to our health. They've said it before. But this time, it appears the White House is listening. This means that we can officially start regulating greenhouse gases, which has not always been a priority of the nation's leadership.
Some lawmakers have already been working on carbon cap-and-trade CO2 program, which would require polluters to buy permits according to the amount of pollution they release into the atmosphere.
The move is already producing warnings from some legislators, who are worried about the massive amount of regulations on businesses that could result. This is explained further over at Bloomberg. Either way, we're going to be hearing a lot more about greenhouse gases in the coming days and months.
