It's that stuff that's mostly at threat, and I think that's what does most of the emission reduction.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301230860904555513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-52290952713337084172016-02-11T15:52:54.113-05:002016-02-11T15:52:54.113-05:00Corporations run this country.

One really has to wonder why the Supremes seem to think that the court can write the needed regs better than the experts. <br /><br />But the upside is, if the Supremes don't like the way EPA did things, the most likely reason would be that it's too flexible (and too non-science-based) by allowing states to skate through with rate-based (rather than mass-based) requirements. So if everyone ends up on a mass-basis after another USSC go-round, the climate might be a net winner, even if it takes way too long to get there.KAPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11189506171267750391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-82120718110813934842016-02-10T13:32:54.043-05:002016-02-10T13:32:54.043-05:00Howard

The court is telling us we need legislative votes and executive approval for this issue, unlike gay marriage. <br /><br />I really appreciated your nuanced view of the PP "investigative reporters" issue. In my mind, the same logic applies here. By allowing a fiat move that is "pro-environment" to save the planet, that sets a dangerous prescient for some other fiat action taken in an "emergency."<br /><br />Grid-Lock is a feature, not a bug.

Class action suits.
