None of this means that dust poses a clear and present danger or that you need to take any extraordinary measures. Just clean regularly, don't smoke, eat at the table - and try not to freak out. Dust bunnies are still only bunnies; you may just want fewer of them...
Still, it's far from clear exactly how the EPA will regulate carbon. Regulations would call for new plants to take on the "best available technologies" to control carbon emissions, but the EPA hasn't specified what those technologies are. Already-built sources of emissions could be even tougher to regulate - the Clean Air Act grandfathered in existing coal plants.

With this clear distinction, the now ambiguous and unfair system of taking food out of our dining hall will disappear. A compromise between now-hungry criminals and concerned HUDS enforcers can make the overall dining experience a more positive...
