Maryland Part of Coalition of States and Local Governments Defending Clean Power Plan; Will Vigorously Oppose Replacement Rule
BALTIMORE, MD – Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh today released the following statement in response to the Trump Administration’s proposed plan to dismantle the Clean Power Plan, the first-ever national limits on climate change emissions from existing fossil-fuel power plants:
“The Environmental Protection Agency cannot step away from its job. We have a shared responsibility to protect our environment from harm. Any effort to pare down or eliminate the Clean Power Plan takes away years of progress to mitigate the harmful effects of climate change on our public health and our environment. Our coalition of states and local governments will continue to defend the Clean Power Plan which is critical to ensuring that progress is made in confronting climate change.”

What an idiot. Did he even read what it deregulates and whether anything in maryland is even affected? I seriously doubt it.
Here we go again, Maryland. is none other than one FU State. just like CA.
But you can bet your ass that Marylanders will be the first and the loudest to holler if and when gas rationing were to occur like it did in the 70s.
Forget climate change that's a modern myth. Pollution on the other hand is a reality I can see with my own eyes in the air and in the run off from burning shit. I don't care how many jobs it provides. No one in this day and age in this nation should be working like that anyway. We are the smartest nation on earth and everyone clings to the past and all they know. People are not buying and shoveling coal into their furnaces. They might change their tunes if they had too do that and had no modern air conditioning. The coal debate is a dead horse. Fine forget the EPA but lets be smart about what we DO know. The 70's were filthy rivers were dead or catching fire there was smoke and trash everywhere. The cities looked like sooty SiFi apocalyptic movie sets. Even here on the shore you saw no Eagles,Hawks or Osprey and they have made a come back. Responsible policy has little to do with anyone's wallet. Doesn't anyone remember anything or are they so brain washed with this back woods bull shit the think they are living in Eden ?
Jest another way to stick it to the poor working class with high cost fake green energy. Liberal lies nothing like keeping the poor man down.
