"The most underreported recent environmental story has been the dramatic decline in energy-related carbon emissions — nearly back to mid-1990s levels, and falling.

Maybe it's because that story just doesn't fit the left's mantra that traditional energy sources are destroying the environment.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration's (EIA) June energy report says that energy-related carbon dioxide fell to 5,473 million metric tons (MMT) in 2011.

That's down from a high of 6,020 MMT in 2007, and only a little above 1995's level of 5,314 MMT.".....................................

Trees and plants are sad about this news.

Strange when you consider how the Indian and Chinese economies keep expanding. Maybe they are spending money on scrubbers.

The story was US specific.

Obama is a genius! He is preventing global warming by tanking the economy. Factories don't produce emissions when they are shuttered.
