E.P.A. Seeks Stricter Rules to Curb Smog

The New York Times January 7, 2010 By John M Broder

On thursday, the environmental protection agency proposed a stricter standard for the pollutants that would bring great health benefits to millions of Ameriacans while imposing large costs on local governments. Regions with the worst smog pollution, such as Northeat, Souther and Central California, and the Chicago and Houston areas, would have more time that the other areas to come into compliance.
I think this is a huge problem if they don't pass this. These places should definitely get this moving fast and make sure Obama passes it. It's a shame how the air has become so bad and we have to figure out more plans to make sure our environment is safe.
