The EPA and Carbon

The EPA recently announced that it has determined that CO2, Methane, and some other global warming gases are damaging the environment and that they, the EPA, is permitted under the Clean Air Act of 1970, to regulate. I would think that Congress could pass additional legislation that would take away this right but that won't happen.

So, now the EPA is threatening Congress to pass Cap and Trade or similar legislation to control greenhouse gases or they will.

Supporters say that it is about time that we use science to make decisions. But these science supporters make no mention of behavioral sciences. The EPA can only regulate the US. It would seem obvious that manufacturing and cattle operations would simply go overseas. We live in a global community-why operates where the costs are higher?
