Well not, apparently for the U.S. Senate, which recessed -- in the hottest summer on record -- without even trying to take up clean energy and climate legislation.
That probably means that nothing will be done about climate change this year.
The U.S. Clean Air Act, which requires manufacturers to install air pollution equipment when they build new factories, is now our best bet to limit carbon pollution.
The EPA will release new regulations to limit global warming pollution as early as January 2011.
Maybe that's why some people in Congress are trying to repeal or suspend the Clean Air Act.
The Natural Resources Defense Council is asking voters to call their senators and tell them to oppose any attempt to repeal the Clean Air Act or to stop the EPA from regulating global warming pollution -- and to move global warming legislation forward.
