There has to be some level of compromise between the nations otherwise there is no way to compete with other countries with severely more lax laws. As long as cement is used to enclose the fissures to adequately protect ground water and other natural resources, there is no evidence that this process is environmentally unsound. Just one perspective.

The Federal Clean Air Act has proven to have be a versatile and necessary legislation that has improved the US air quality since it was passed in 1970. Since the focus was originally on auto emissions, the legislation has great promise in promoting energy efficiencies through LEEDs building practices.

The passing of laws permitting Fracking in any way in Spain are another example of the myopic servile imbecility of the government of Mr Rajoy. Rather that continue being an innovator in renewable energy sources these sycophants of anything done in France, Britain or Germany (any retrograde) quash renewable energies in favor of damaging the environment in the most hypocrite manner possible.

Climate change is a real serious issue and it’s important that enough is done to help protect the environment.

The summary of Concerned Dublin Citizens contains an error. It incorrectly states that the trial court held that GHG emissions thresholds adopted in 2010 “constituted new information requiring additional environmental review.” To the contrary, the trial court concluded that the 2010 standards did not constitute new information, as the potential environmental consequences of GHG emissions were widely known in 2002 when the EIR was certified.

Good and precise direction towards awareness and making responsible all stakeholders in energy sector to show their concerns towards clean air emissions by following the prevailing environmental laws.

Comment on EPA Water Pollutant Discharge Rules Rely on Antiquated Rainfall Maps by Angela Pellingra

Let us not fail to realize as well the problems of developing and requiring the same erosion control measures in the piedmont and coastal regions- and mountain regions. Erosion control measure requirements statewide are no match for the steep topography and power of water coming off those western mountains. During a somewhat heavy rainstorm, the scene looks a bit like a tsunami wall of freshwater overtaking a little erosion control town; surely to the detriment of the native inhabitants.
