...being build on American Indian reservation land in Utah, the board ruled that the EPA has no valid reason to refuse to regulate the CO2 emissions that come from new coal-powered plants. The decision pointed to a May 2007 ruling by the Supreme Court that recognized CO2, the main cause of climate change, is indeed a pollutant under the federal Clean Air Act and therefore needs to be regulated by the EPA. In the months since that landmark decision, the EPA - with the support of the Bush Administration - has doggedly refuse to regulate CO2, much to the dismay...

At the SADC summit, Tsvangirai warned that one million Zimbabweans face death from...
...issues that it ended up neglecting the larger McCain effort? Daniels (who declined to be interviewed for this article) begged off stumping for a similar marriage amendment in Indiana. It died in the state legislature; but this fall, if you drove up and down Indianapolis' main avenue, Meridian Street, you saw lawn after lawn sporting signs for both Obama and "My Man Mitch," largely because Daniels has prioritized issues like broadening health-care coverage (and even raising some taxes) over demonizing gays and immigrants. Daniels also notably didn't make much time in his schedule for Palin's rallies...
