Haha, "Chowderhead" I can't remember the last time I heard that name.

Since president Chowderhead won't sign the Kyoto accord(s), individual states, to my recollection, are forming their own versions which, I assume, include some description of GH gas emission limits.

Yes, why not? The federal government has to set a limit for those states who do not take the initiative to set one. But, states should still be able to set their own ... making them even harsher than fed limit. The population and congestion areas in various states should dictate the CO2 standards. In more rural states standards can be less, than denser populated states.

No. It should be a nationa issue, otherwise it won't do much good, to have one state with limits, and another state 5 miles away without. Where is the point in that?

Washington hasn't shown much evidence of any wisdom on anything in memory. If it has to be done probably something that reflects the thinking of people nearer home would be a lot better than having pro-politicians and unelected regulators several time-zones away do it.

Because of all the undeveloped land in South Carolina, we have an excellent quality of air. But I think it should be based on population too. Certainly the more dense the population, the more air pollution.

No I don't think that would work. Some states would be too influenced by the big companies that pay the taxes and let them get away with too much.

It should be the same for all states so the government should set the limits WITHOUT exempting certain factories etc.

No I think it should be one policy for the entire country...if each state had something different it would be a real mess

No --- I'm not allowed to set mine in my own home either.
