Breathing Can Be Dangerous to your Health

The EPA on Monday declared greenhouse gases a danger to public health - a move that could pave the way for future regulation.

EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson has now said in a written statement that carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases are a threat to public health.  This is the same carbon dioxide that you and I emit everytime we exhale and the same carbon dioxide that every living plant on earth needs to survive.

I'm going to hold my comments to see how this plays over the next few days, but make your calendar - this date will come back to haunt us somehow in the future and for US employers, it could very well mean more taxes and fewer US jobs.
