The most important thing right now is that it can be used as fuel. It is much cheaper than gas and also does not cause pollution. We have used it as rocket fuel for years but only recently have we developed vehicles that can run on it. They are in California.

http://home.ust.hk/~irenelo/main/6/6a_body.htm\n\nhttp://www.pepps.fsu.edu/segip/states/NC/poll.html\nThis link above talks about the PSI ranges and simply says that    "For each urban area, the PSI is assigned a single number that is representative of the worst offending criteria pollutant for that day. The calculated number is placed within the appropriate index range and the accompanying descriptor word is used to report that day's pollution level."\n\nhttp://www.epa.gov/air/criteria.html\nThe link above is a site that gives more info about the NAAQS

Yes!  I believe strongly in environmental issues.  I'm not really a tree-hugger, and I don't blow up Humvees on my weekends.  I simply believe that global warming is one of the biggest dangers facing our country.  Far more so than terrorism. \n\nIf I had the ear of US lawmakers, I would encourage them to follow California's rules, forcing carmakers to manufacture vehicles with lower emissions and higher fuel efficiency.  \n\nI would fine companies that pollute commiserate to the amount required to clean up the pollution plus a punative fine that would be calculated upon the amount of money that they saved by causing the pollution to begin with. \n\nIE: Acme dumps acetote into the drains, which go into our rivers because they don't want to pay $1500/mo for proper disposal.  They would be fined the amt of $$ to clean up the mess, plus the $1500/mo for however many months they've been destroying the environment.\n\nIt's just fair.  A person can't get away with this sort of stuff, so why should our corporations?

Sacramento is alright. You are better off in the Bay area which is about two hours away from Sac but its UNBELIEVABLY EXPENSIVE. Sacramento gets really HOT and there are a lot of hicks out there. They have music and stores and all that kind of stuff though, its not too bad on that level.

It really depends on who You are and your community needs.\nI like Green And Beauty \nThe listing of America's cleanest cities is based on ozone pollution and particles. The listing runs from greenest on down. The source for the data is the American Lung Association's 2005 set of statistics. Some of the cities that lead the green list for ozone reduction are also winners in having the lowest particle count.\n\nBrief Definitions \n(source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)\nOzone: Ground-level ozone is the product of chemical reactions involving hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides in the presence of sunlight. Ozone is a potent irritant that may cause lung damage and a variety of respiratory problems.\n\nSmall particles: Particles that are less than 2.5 microns in diameter. These particles are so small they are typically invisible to the naked eye, and they contribute to haze. Small particles are generally more harmful to human health than larger particles because they penetrate more deeply into living organisms.\n\nGreenest Cities\nOzone Rank Greenest City Small Particle Rank \n1. Ames-Boone, Iowa  \n2. Bellingham, Wash. 10 \n3. Brownsville-Harlingen- Raymondville, Texas  \n4. Cedar Rapids, Iowa  \n5. Colorado Springs, Colo. 12 \n6. Deltona-Daytona Beach-Palm Coast, Fla. 23 \n7. Des Moines-Newton-Pella, Iowa  \n8. Duluth, Minn., Wis. 19 \n9. Eugene -Springfield, Ore.  \n10. Fargo-Wahpeton, N.D., Minn. 14 \n11. Farmington, N.M. 7 \n12. Flagstaff, Ariz.  \n13. Fort Polk South-DeRidder, La.  \n14. Honolulu, Hawaii 3 \n15. Jacksonville, Fla.  \n16. Laredo, Texas  \n17. Lincoln, Neb.  \n18. Logan, Utah-Idaho  \n19. Medford, Ore.  \n20. Mount Vernon-Anacortes, Wash.  \n21. Salem, Ore.  \n22. Salinas, Calif.  \n23. Sioux Falls, S.D.  \n24. Spokane, Wash.  \n25. Wausau-Merrill, Wis.

Product contains a chemical known by the state of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Red Yeast Rice and Horny Goat Weed cannot be shipped to California for similar reasons as outlined under Proposition 65. Proposition 65, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, was enacted as a ballot initiative in November 1986. The Proposition was intended by its authors to protect California citizens and the State's drinking water sources from chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and to inform citizens about exposures to such chemicals. \nProposition 65 requires the Governor to publish, at least annually, a list of chemicals known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity.

We have had some problems with it in the Bay area. Something to do with leaking cavity fluids, or the like. Legislation was proposed. I do not remember if there was any outcome, or not. It has been a while and I was not paying strict attention, as I am a living organism sort of guy.

Look at the voting record of the people you are voting for.  Some Republicans have good environmental records, however, by and far the Democratic Party has dominated the field of environmental reforms.  All of our major environmental laws (Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act, etc.) were passed in the 1970's when Democrats were the majority in Congress and the Senate.  Once we became a Republican dominated country in the 80's, with Reagan, environmental reforms came to a screeching halt.  The Clinton presidency made good progress again for our environment (with Al Gore being one of the foremost environmental advocates in our country).  Now, with our current President and Congress, much of that progress has been reversed.  President Bush repealed many of the environmental programs that Clinton put into place.

California, like anywhere else has benefits and disadvantages to living here.  San Diego politics are a mess, Duke Cunningham was just hauled off to jail, we have a huge pension problem, several of our city council members were indicted in a strip club scandal and it seems like our city governement is unresponsive to the people who live here.  The state is no better, remember we recalled our governor and replaced Davis with the girlie man terminator.  \n\nWe have a huge problem with illegal aliens who use services like education and health care to which they don't contribute.  As a result, most of our schools are over crowded and under performing.  Our public hospital emergency rooms can have 6-8 hour waits, are inefficient and rate poorly for service.  We are always faced with some new school bond, hospital bond, library bond or increase in the sales tax because of it.\n\nIt is really expensive to live here.  Traffic conjestion is a fact of life.  Owning a home is out of reach for a lot of middle income people.  \n\nBut, it is a beautiful state to live in, as well.  Miles of beaches, mountains, deserts, forests, and there is always something to do.  Where else can you go from the ocean to the mountains in the same day?  The weather is generally comfortable throughout the year.  \n\nWe have an election coming up and Californians aren't afraid of change.  Maybe some fresh faces will change the course of our future!

pollution can cause poisonous run off, and destroy the habitat of water animals, it would also hurt the animals who drink from the water source. It causes smog, its very bad to breath, with all of the pullution building uo it traps heat in earths atmosphere, causing global warming, the planet heats up. theres also alot of other tihngs.
