The Environmental Protection Agency declared today that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are harmful to people and the environment. The administration will not ignore science or the law any longer, nor will we avoid the responsibility we owe to our children and our grandchildren, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said.
