Re: [GRRN] EPA Proceeds with Diesel Rule

["Mike Morrow" <mmorrow@together.net>]

The Bush team isn't done yet.  I read that they have budgeted $10,000,000
for alternative energy development.  Of course the money will come from ANWR
royalties.  No royalties, No development.

Paul-

I certainly never meant to judge anyone...my intent is solely to pass along
whatever concrete evidence, good or bad, that comes along so that people can
draw their own conclusions.

My only position is that recyclers need to understand that these overlying
political events have significant implications for recycling. Since we are
pitted against competition from virgin materials and conventional disposal
that are both heavily subsidized, and from packaging decisions that don't
typically consider the external back end impacts, recycling can't compete in
that kind of grossly distorted free market absent policy intervention from
those politicians, except for in a few niche corners.

    Certainly neither party has a monopoly on good or bad activities.  Our
job in my view is to respond to both parties objectively on the merits as
their actions affect us.

                                            Peter

Dang it, Peter. You told the Bush gang was going to be bad environmental
palyers. Now they are going to start to ruin your reputation if they keep
this up, pal!
