Environmental Protection Agency faced House Democrats and said we have to wait 
until late next year to learn whether the EPA will issue regulations controlling 
greenhouse gas emissions. </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.ecoearth.info/shared/reader/welcome.aspx?linkid=79164"><DIV>
This goes along with Bush, who brought four agencies together — including the 
EPA — to mull over a plan to regulate emissions and have it completed for Bush 
to look at only weeks before he leaves office. This flies against a Supreme 
Court ruling that says the EPA has the clear authority to regulate such 
emissions. </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.ecoearth.info/shared/reader/welcome.aspx?linkid=79164"><DIV>
What's taking so long for the EPA to act? EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson told 
the House special committee on global warming that "we're moving in a 
thoughtful, deliberate manner, looking at every appropriate option." </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.ecoearth.info/shared/reader/welcome.aspx?linkid=79164">
Unfortunately, it's clear we cannot count on the Bush administration to take 
action. The real consequence is that while we go through this lengthy process, 
our air quality suffers. But we have to start somewhere.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9067EAD1-0DDA-4D8E-AF0F-B55DB09B1A7E/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
