Otherwise, there will be massive conflict between the Clean Air Act's highly prescriptive approach to conventional pollutants and the incentive-based cap and trade approach to greenhouse gases advocated by all the leading climate change bills. Since both CO2 and conventional pollutants are emitted by the same sources, the same regulatory strategy has to be used for both. (PRWeb Mar 2, 2009)
