The article leaves out several facts. One in particular. In this area, low income neighborhoods are typically nearer highways and interstates than others.

Enjoy the article, and get ready for goods' costs to increase even more, thanks to more regulation.

Absolutely no misinformation or slant to that article. We had a Case dealer who stated years ago how it works. You always tell the truth, just no more than you have to. I figure that there are more who live by that motto.

If you haven't figured out that the end game of the Green movement is the outlawing if the internal combustion engine then there is truly no hope for you.

Self appointed "experts" pushing for their political goal, which apparently is to starve us. Less humans means less carbon.

WASHINGTON -- The Trump administration on Monday took its first step toward tighter pollution controls on trucks.
Andrew Wheeler, head of the Environmental Protection Agency, began the legal and regulatory process for curbing highway emissions of nitrogen dioxide, which has been linked to asthma and other respiratory diseases.

While the move could give President Donald Trump a nominal environmental achievement for the 2020 campaign, public health experts say the truck regulations are not as out of line with administration deregulation policy as they would appear.

The emerging rule will likely limit nitrogen dioxide pollution more than current standards, they say, but fall far short of what is necessary to significantly prevent respiratory illness and even premature deaths.

This is not new news. A re-hash of a 2020 headline. I did not know trump was a greenie.
It is not a political issue when you are killing people slowly.

Sounds like someone tried to take a common sense approach, but of course that is never enough for the those that cannot think.

My mom always said, "If you are half as smart as you think you are you'd be twice as smart as you really are!"

I was watching a program on nuclear energy, and the power plant in Japan that was struck by the tsunami a few years ago. There had been surveys and test done by different engineers and they collectively determined no tsunami could get to that plant to harm it.

That reminds me of another saying. "Facts change- truth doesn't".

In New York State. Let them run all those trucks though the high rent and very rich suburbs outside of NYC and something would be done in a hurry.
