House Republicans waste no time in 2011, propose legislation to delay and block global warming protection


Republicans strike first in 2011 and look to block EPA from enacting global warming related regulations. 

Earthjustice did not take this lightly, firing that "these pieces of legislation are bad for the health of the American people, bad for American competitiveness in the global economy, bad for our national security, and bad for air quality across America."

Of course, republicans focused on the EPA's "job killing" regulations that "overreach." Apparently the EPA shouldn't be able to regulate carbon dioxide and methane under the Clean Air Act. Ohh, and they're going to kill the West Virginia economy.


But who should regulate CO2 and CH4 if not the EPA? I think we're beyond the point of no regulation, so why delay this?
