CARB may be overturned

On CNN they said the feds gave the go ahead for the automakers to sue California over the CARB rules since it is up to the feds to regulate vehicle emissions.

******* GOOD!!!

I hated living in Cali because of that crap. Cali is the only state suing the auto manufacturers for get this.......... "global warming". If any of you guys believe in global warming a. shoot yourselves b. do some research then shoot someone that believes in global warming.

I so hope the manufacturers win.

I'm not sure I have enough ammo to shoot all those scientists... but I hope they overturn the CARB thing anyway... it's not really helping...

I can't find it on CNN either, but something tells me this might just have to do with the new standards which are to take affect 2009 that everyone had been making a stink about. Thats if I had to guess though.

Sorry... but as a student of Envorinmental Studies... global warming is a real thing... but I'll agree... CARB regulations aren't doing anything to help the case... I hope they do overturn it...

I'm confused anyway... The states are allowed to make any laws they like, as long as they don't un-do a federal law, but they can increase an already standing law. CARB for example. Then, it's the automaker's choice to sell in the state. There's nothing forcing them to do so.

Federal - State legal issues always favor the state...

Funny I am dual majoring in Environment Studies and Civil Engineering. Someone is selling you wolf tickets if you THINK global warming is real. There is proof that this is a NATURAL occuring weather trend, not exhaust gases killing us all.

There is no debate, facts say the Earth changes temperatures like this NATURALLY. No matter what your liberal teacher(s)and the bleedy heart environmentalists say, the greenhouse gases are not heating the Earth up.

Its true global warming is happening. Its also true that us humans do contribute to the problem. But the whole truth is that we contribute only .02% of green house gases. Mom nature does the rest all on her own, all 99.98% of it. California should sue mom nature not the auto manufacturers.
