EPA considers limiting greenhouse gas: time to fix Ike’s mistake

Here’s how to do it:

First, copy this Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2009-0171. You’ll need it when you speak out online here. Or, put in in the subject of your comment and send it in via an email to: GHG-Endangerment-Docket@epa.gov

Tips (from the EPA)

• Be clear.
• Describe any assumptions that you used.
• Provide any technical information and/or data you used that support your views.
• Provide specific examples.
• Offer alternatives.
• To ensure proper receipt by EPA, identify the docket identification number in the subject line.
• Include you name and other contact information in the body of your comment.

A final note from me: I generally like Ike (although I can only judge from reading, I missed him by a few decades).  But the interstate highways system was an overcommitment to cars and trucks — a multi-modal system including both highways and high speed trains and urban high-speed public transit would have been superior.  Cars have their uses and their joys, but the car culture has made the US the world’s number 1 polluter, isolated from each other, destroyed open space, and dramatically decreased physical fitness and overall health.
