EPA THREATENS FOUNDATION OF U.S. ECONOMY

As the EPA creates thousands of pages of highly questionable new rules on CO2 emissions, they are rapidly becoming the high priesthood over our economy and the lives of every man, woman and child in America.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) seems to be on a drunken binge to impose increasingly economy-killing regulations to reduce CO2 emissions. These new regulations are based on flimsy pseudoscience and what amounts to religious tenants of faith that humans are destroying mother earth. Nonetheless, the EPA claims that current air and water emissions endanger human health. The most ridiculous of these assertions is carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
CO2 Emissions and Global Warming
Nearly a half of the U.S. electricity production is from coal and another 23 percent from natural gas. Only 2 percent comes from wind and solar.
The United States (U.S) currently produces nearly 70 percent of its electricity from coal and natural gas; both of which emit millions of tons of CO2. Because of their near-religious belief that this is causing global warming, relentless environmental pseudoscience has convinced President Obama that this perceived warming will destroy the earth. Obama has therefore committed the U.S. to drastically reduce CO2 emissions by converting to green alternative energy, which currently only produces 4 percent of our electricity, even though it will “cause energy prices to necessarily skyrocket.”
Economy-wrecking cap and trade legislation has been introduced in Congress over the years to force the U.S. to go to green energy. Although Americans rejected all of these efforts, President Obama had a backup plan; have the EPA create regulations without Congressional approval that would cut just as much CO2 emissions.
