3-3 IAN Cattlemen Ask for Review

 The underpinnings of the entire “climategate” scandal is human-caused greenhouse gas emissions. There’s an anti-EPA group that has gotten into the fray and it’s hard to call the emissions human caused…because as it relates to this group’s interests, humans have nothing to do with it. I’ll be right back (ahem) to clear the air. The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association is petitioning the EPA to reconsider its finding that human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are an endangerment to public health and welfare. The petition is based upon information uncovered during the recent “climategate” scandal - which seriously calls into question the scientific validity behind EPA's finding. As for the issue of “human caused”, this is all about methane produced by cows. Tamara Thies (theez) - Chief Environmental Counsel - explains NCBA's stance: “Not only is the data questionable but EPA unlawfully sub-delegated its duties under the Clean Air Act to foreign entities with clear agenda of promoting the theory of human caused climate change. It’s not law EPA’s scientific judgement to be based on foreign alarmists agendas. Reconsideration of this rule is essential to restoring America’s trust in this issue.”

 Since “climategate” wasn’t exposed until after the public comment period of the endangerment proposed rule had expired - the petition calls on EPA to convene a proceeding for reconsideration and stay any further regulatory actions
