The European Commission wants the US and other wealthy nations to adopt a carbon trading plan that will cut down greenhouse emissions. Barack Obama has already been in talks about a similar carbon based tax system.
Europeans always takes the first steps in trying to better the Earth. It seems like at times, they are the only ones acting and actually caring. They started using wind and solar power as an alternative. They have also developed a way to use the Baltic Sea to generate turbines. Good for the Europeans, one day, they will save us all.

Because of recent population growth to Boise, Idaho, and the surrounding suburbs, Boise is on the brink of violating federal clean air standards. The population has doubled in the last two decades, causing traffic congestion.
Even though Boise is in the middle of nowhere (it's practically Oregon's Spain), It is still a very sad forthcoming. I've seen photos of Boise, and I have to say that this is a very beautiful place. But the picture next to the article tells a different story. Dense grey fog just surrounds the area as though it looks like Mexico, or Los Angelas.
