I would not trust that article due to the passage (my highlights) "Additionally, the Clean Power Plan would’ve been a policy that future administrations could build on to require even deeper emissions reductions post-2030 — the sort of thing that will ultimately prove necessary if we want to halt global warming. If the plan gets repealed or significantly weakened, deep decarbonization becomes much harder and slower. In that sense, repeal is a pretty big deal."It is actually quite simple. Congress passes a single page bill. "Congress directs the Environmental Protection Agency that Carbon Dioxide is not a pollutant but a gas essential for life, thus Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act shall not apply to carbon dioxide." To stop all the wailing and gnashing of teeth from the snow-flakes and watermelons - a get out clause could be added that defines 'pollutant' and requiring a defined scientific proof of the pollution that must not rely on statistics but scientific observation, hypothesis and falsification. So for example showing that in the past CO2 had been orders of magnitude higher without deleterious effects but that reducing CO2 to levels less than 200ppm has had deleterious effects on plant growth and thus all life on Earth, it can be demonstrated scientifically that anything that reduces CO2 will cause harm whereas increasing CO2 will not.

Just watched POTUS address to Congress. Amazing speech. Nancy Pelosi looked like a very, very old woman.

I saw a bit too in passing. He was at his best (from what I saw) .... teleprompter?

Is this the same Immelt that was giggling about shovel ready jobs as he exported GE engineering jobs (and intelligence) to China?

If I wanted America to succeed, I'd build more Mongolian restaurants.
