WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration on Monday will roll out a plan to cut earth-warming pollution from power plants by 30 percent by 2030, setting in motion one of the most significant actions to address global warming in U.S. history.

The rule, which is expected to be final next year, will set the first national limits on carbon dioxide, the chief gas linked to global warming from the nation's power plants. They are the largest source of greenhouse gases in the U.S., accounting for about a third of the annual emissions that make the U.S. the second largest contributor to global warming on the planet.

The regulation is a centerpiece of President Barack Obama's plans to reduce the pollution linked to global warming, a step that the administration hopes will get other countries to act when negotiations on a new international treaty resume next year.

Despite concluding in 2009 that greenhouse gases endanger human and welfare, a finding that triggered their regulation under the 1970 Clean Air Act, it has taken years for the administration to take on the nation's fleet of power plants. In December 2010, the Obama administration announced a "modest pace" for setting greenhouse gas standards for power plants, setting a May 2012 deadline.

Having a job at a power plant, I am more than a little familiar with this horse sh!t they are putting out. Most plants are already in compliance with the new regs.

I'd wager that all the locomotives in use today are putting out more contaminates than power plants. Can't shut them down, or regulate them....Buffet needs the money.

That's one thing Obama didn't lie about. He said before the 2008 election
that he was going to regulate the coal companies out of business. :mad:

Liberals learned that they can keep taking ,.. and out of compromise we keep giving in...




we have an old coal plant.. Christie agreed to have it converted to natural gas..

liberals praised the decision...

only problem is we need a new larger natural gas pipeline to supply the plant..

and those same liberals are now fighting the new pipeline..

liberals are persistent and unwavering.. and will destroy everything our for-fathers built..
