The CPDW is thought to be affected by the shift in the westerly winds around Antarctica which have increased in recent decades due to a combination of greenhouse gas forcing and the polar ozone hole ( Miller et al, 2006 ). 2020) or Sadai et al.

The state of Minnesota uses EPA’s ethylene oxide emissions standards, which haven’t been updated since 2006. You can compare this to ozone which has a half-life on the order of minutes, and some PFAS chemicals that have a half-life in air on the order of several years. And, as I’ll try to show, these two subjects have a lot in common.

The plaintiffs in lawsuits challenging the cap-and-trade program had argued that it was not authorized by the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 and that the requirement to purchase emissions allowances constituted a tax that required approval by a two-thirds majority of the State legislature.

Bush’s words from his January 2006 State of The Union message, “America is addicted to oil.” This is to say nothing of the other respiratory illnesses caused or exacerbated by smog (ozone), another dangerous byproduct of fossil fuels, or the risks borne by the 310,896 PA kids who attend school within a half mile of an oil and gas facility.

Our air monitors measure black carbon, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, and other specific site pollutants. It is important for people to recognize that, from 2006 to 2014, the richest 20 percent of our country have received about $10.8 billion of those benefits.

µm in diameter, which include our black carbon particles of interest, have been shown to be particularly problematic because they can penetrate deep into the lungs and blood stream and cause cardiovascular and respiratory disease (Pope and Dockery, 2006; Brook et al., AMAP Assessment 2015: Black Carbon and Ozone as Arctic Climate Forcers.”

For example, the IPCC notes that France had 4,000 fewer deaths than anticipated from a heat wave in 2006 thanks to improved health care, an early-warning system and greater public consciousness in response to a deadly heat wave three years earlier. Better preparedness for heat waves, which could increase in a hotter world, will save lives.
