Similarly, there is no scientific basis for declaring that human induced CO2 emissions have any measurable impact on global temperature and/or global warming. It is hard to understand how the court arrived at its decision. What was the scientific basis for its decision? Beyond the science itself, can we even imagine the cost and red tape that will be the result of this decision?

Do we just sit on the sideline and wait for an aggreived corporate entity to challenge the regulation? Or is there some more direct action we can take?

The basic chemistry of carbon, and especially it's indespensibility in our food supply. That should alleviate all this utter nonsense about this vital gas being pollution. And I blame especially environmentalists for demonizing CO2 to be used as a tool to attack man'use of hydrocarbon fuels. Some terribly bad pseudo science, the hypothesis of AGW, has been used by charlatans, exemplified by Al Gore, to terrorize the uninformed citizenry, mislead the news media and corrupt quite a number of scientists with the lure of large research grants to prove the validity of AGW. After 20 years and the expenditure of over $30 billion,there is no empirical evidence whatever that CO2 has a significant effect on the world's climate. Now we have world-wide confusion about climates and a overwhelming political desire to try to control CO2,an impossibility which will bankrupt the civilized world in my opinion.
