Lawsuits on Climate Control

Letter to Congress:

EIN News says, "U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Car Dealers' Lawsuit Targets Stricter Vehicle Emissions Rules in California. A federal lawsuit by two industry groups aims to halt the U.S. government and the state of California from moving ahead with new greenhouse gas emissions rules for cars and trucks -- an action that, if successful, could scuttle a key piece of the Obama administration's plans to set stricter nationwide standards for vehicles.

Congratulations to the US Chamber of Commerce and the Car Dealers!
There are 2 aspects of vehicle emissions. One borders on climate control,which should have no place in our regulatory system. The other involves pollutants, which have been demonstrated to have negative effects on the health of human beings. We start with looking at the composition of vehicle emissions.
Carbon monoxide is a human poison. It is also an energy loss, because it is a product of the incomplete combustion of gasoline and diesel fuel. It is already well-controlled by the use of catalytic converters on vehicles. EPA regulation on permissible concentration in the emission gas would seem appropriate.
Nitrogen oxides are similarly obnoxious. They are also controlled by use of catalytic converters, and EPA regulation seems appropriate.
Particulate matter (soot) is possibly carcinogenic, but there is no clear evidence. However, it does dirty up the area and EPA control on permissible concentration in the emissions could be appropriate.
Lastly, we come to carbon dioxide. It is not a human poison. It can cause suffocation at high concentrations, as can nitrogen, argon, helium, and other biologically inert gases. There is no basis for concentration control in automotive emissions. Any attempts to do so, are a subtle attempt for climate control, based on the myth of greenhouse gases and the associated opportunities of grants, Cap and Trade, etc.
I hope the courts will recognize technical differences, consider the probable attempt at climate control through EPA and the Administration, and disallow the Administration and its agency to overreach in this area.
