The administration is also escalating a clash with Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who has refused to sign on to its climate agenda.

The Environmental Protection Agency is expected to announce Thursday that it will propose standards for controlling greenhouse-gas emissions from U.S. power plants by July 2011 and for refineries by December 2011.

The proposed new power-plant regulations are likely to limit the amount of carbon dioxide a facility can emit for each megawatt hour of electricity produced, a person familiar with the agency’s plans said.

That could compel utilities to switch from relatively cheap coal to cleaner sources of energy, including natural gas, wind or nuclear power. Utilities that rely heavily on coal have expressed concerns such a shift could cause electricity prices to rise. WSJ

Cause electricity prices to rise there is a much simpler plan but I guess complex is better. Can hardly wait to see Texas Gov. Rick Perry on TV do you think he will cry seems to be all the rage lately. Maybe we will hear the show must go on. If we wish to survive just maybe the show the one we see now doesn’t need to go on. Can a State still succeed from the union as if they can would they have to turn in there weapons you know the bigger ones as I’ve seen some of these old boy’s on TV and they seem to live in an alternate reality and or whatever they are taking doesn’t seem to be doing them much good.

GOES 11 at least we will all get a great view of the destruction. Type in GOES 11 NASA search engine.

Aha,

17 feet of snow in a few places California. Now let’s use that little bit bigger brain a 7 store building got that. So wikileaks is going to release a little on BofA I know maybe we could pass a few new law’s bring up being unamerican. The good the bad and the ugly heck let’s just see a few pit one side against another nice cup of coffee game of checkers. Heck let’s use that bigger brain again, it was the year 2014 and…………………………………………?

Moisture and cold air where does the moisture come from and the cold air why is a good word. Has this thinking been banned, really and who is giving the orders.

New from James Hansen and James this is a good one.

Police were called Saturday morning to calm passengers at Frankfurt airport as blizzards left thousands of holiday passengers stranded across Europe. Germany

Let’s see here in the States we got health care sort of and now it’s repeal and replace. The tax bill to try and get the system going again the same system that will send us all down the drain but the wealthy got there tax cut’s. Starting to add up and the big plan so far is go shopping. Something is very very wrong here.

The snow in Germany, Europe climate change and or climate disruption well yes it sure is and we will hear from the wealthy who got there tax cut’s it’s cold what climate change go shopping buy one share of stock and have fun doing it listen to us we know best. Oh and help us get out the vote. Wait the truth is now banned well I’ll post this anyway. Repeat the obvious repeat the obvious!

St. George • The town Rockville was told to evacuate Tuesday afternoon because of fears the Trees Ranch Dam could fail, sending a deluge downstream toward it.

“The imminent failure of the Trees Ranch Dam on the East fork of the Virgin River in Washington County was reported by Washington County Sheriff’s Department,” the weather service said.

If these so called leaders don’t take us or the problems we face seriously why should we take them seriously and only the beginning. For profit more on the lines of nonprofit if we wish to survive.

i cannot understand the above observation. i am not saying that u are not correct.
i cld venture a guess as to what u mean to say by the above statement.

i think u’r saying that a correct style of living must exists and only thereafter we’d apply it to us? and since, obviously [at this date] norma?l not existing anywhere, we cannot know what is normal?
ok, i am not going any further with this until i get an adequate explanation! tnx

sorry, james but this observation appears incorrect. for one thing, a clan or lager group of people must have lived without ‘nobles’; i.e., criminals such as shamans, visionaries, priests, kings, et al.
we may have believed in ghosts, spirits before rise of ‘nobility’; however, most likely all people did believe in spirits and the like. but for what purpose? to subjugate people or not?
i say no! not to use people or instill fear of them so that they cld be controlled.
it constituted first religion. however, religion in itself is not harmful to us– priests are. they are the last people to love, respect gods.
i affirm quite strongly that we were ok 50k yrs ago; we r ok even now. just get rid of priests and abusers of us is all we need to do!

as for science, i affirm that having survived w.o. it for one mn yrs, we wld have survived w.o. it, anyhow.
the science per se is not evil– what is evil is abusers taking much of the fruits of science for themselves.

i agree that private ownership of anything is wrong. indigenes of americas had no such concept and neither had we, say, until 15k yrs ago or later.
ownership of people is even worse than owning anything else.

where i come from there had been dozens of major violent uprisings against ‘nobility’. however, they were sporadic and local and thus easily put dwn by king’s soldiers.
i need to reread ur piece to comment on other points u made. tnx
