Apparently the EPA thinks global warming is being caused by man. Some of the solutions they offer on the site seem pretty lame, however.
Decades ago CO1 was the big culprit, now it's CO2. According to the EPA, 50% of the CO2 emissions come from electric generating plants. Only a third comes from transportation. Why isn't more attention focused on electric generation?
Also, why isn't reforestation being discussed? Unlike CO1, CO2 can be filtered by plants. The EPA wants us to change light bulbs in our house. Why not plant a few trees in the yard?
Why not plant trees in the thousands of miles of highway medium across the country? I mean, what's more important, a cop being able to zap you with radar in the opposite lane or climate shift?
Why not reclaim all the abandon property in the inner cities and either reforest it or redevelop it for new housing, rather than urban sprawl?
Why don't industry go to a 10 hour work day 4 days a week?
