EPA: Greenhouse gases endanger human health

WASHINGTON – Officials tell The Associated Press that the Environmental Protection Agency has concluded greenhouse gases are endangering people's health and must be regulated. The EPA will announced its findings at a news conference Monday. The announcement is timed to boost the Obama administration's arguments at an international climate conference — beginning this week — that the United States is taking actions to combat global warming, even though Congress has yet to act on climate legislation. Under a Supreme Court ruling, the so-called endangerment finding is needed before the EPA can regulate carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases released from power plants, factories and automobiles under the federal Clean Air Act.

Next scientists will tell us that being born is a precursor to dying and no one will be allowed to procreate.

They'll do anything to abort and euthanize those 'pesky Conservative humans' who are the root cause of every Liberal's problems.

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands.... you know the rest. We’re at that stage again folks. We have a non-representative government and a president (gags me to say that word with O in mind) who is fostering a one world agenda. Time we pried our butts out of the chair and do what we need to do before it is too late.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Great;

One rogue and unconstitutional agency, running out of control, appoints itself in charge of the entire US economy, based on it’s perspective of a few extremist bureaucrats who refuse to consider data that proves them wrong.

There should be tar and feathers ready at the press conference, but, instead, all will be quiet and the MSM will hail this “great” decision.

I am a scientist and I can give you the scientific names:

Liegen
Politigen
Falsifegen
Greedigen
Controligen

These gases can be lethal and always contribute to fear and control of people. Stay away from them, if anyone is using them report them to the EPA. If possible, make a citizen’s arrest so that the miscreant can be imprisoned.

Also Dangerous to ones health:

1) Water-drowning
2) Fire -Burning
3) Food- weight gain can kill you
4) Soil- suffocation
5) Bears- eaten alive
6) Sharks-ditto
7) Trees-could fall on you
8) Birds-see Alfred Hitchcock
9) women-can drive one insane
10) Sunlight-cancer

Besides government, is their ANYTHING that is not harmful to the human race???

The EPA has become a bunch of jack booted thugs to oppress the people. There may be a few real scientists at the agency cringing at this alchemy approach to "clean air."

Here is yet another example of our tax payer dollars being misused again and again on policies based on specious reasoning, with a proven record of failure. Where have the scientists gone?

[MinstrelBoy]

The #1 global warming gas is water, by a factor of 50:1 to what carbon dioxide does. Ban water for the children!!!

[bsf2009]

Criminal penalties for those that speak out against the policy?

Amen!

They are vastly overplaying their hand here. This will invariably lead to massive reform of the so-called Clean Air Act, and all the other enviro B.S. we’ve suffered under for too long.

Keep it up fools. The great Common Sense Revolution is coming.

[a fool in paradise]

Let’s vote for different people to run the EPA.

Oh wait, they are unelected.
