#1 So in other words the EPA labeled CO2 (aka Plant Food) a 'dangerous pollutant' purely due to POLITICAL reasons and not scientific reasons.

Why am I not suprised?

#2 Well, CF, it's easier for them to pass this regulation than it is for them to stop emitting it.

I'm waiting for them to go after dihydrogen minoxide next. That crap's in everything!!

#4 Crazyfool is right, CO2 is a fertilizer. CO2 gas enrichment is a common strategy for supercharging growth in your "closet garden". Plants BREATHE the stuff! They take in CO2 and release pure Oxygen. It's part of the circle of life.

#5 All of us exhale CO2 when we breathe. So is the EPA going to regulate the breathing by animals? What a bunch of morons. Plant a tree and get over this tree-hugger B.S. In the end it the administration fall back position if cap and trade doesn't pass-just have the EPA regulate the environoment. BO promised the most transparent administration; it does seem that most people are on to this administrations slight of hand.

#6 All of us exhale CO2 when we breathe. So is the EPA going to regulate the breathing by animals?

In fact there is a movement for voluntary extinction of mankind. Notice that doesn't necessarily mean that individual deaths are voluntary.

#7 JFM: Do the people signing up for this movement volunteer to go first? Or is it one of those "Everyone else needs to do this while we don't" movements, as usual?

#8 "All of us exhale CO2 when we breathe."

Don't worry: Inhaling is still ok, only exhaling is not.

Water vapor has a much bigger influence on climate.

Stand by
