The EPA's new carbon dioxide regulations for heavy trucks is meant to help the U.S. meet its goal of reducing emissions to fight global warming. There's just one problem: CO2 regulations on heavy trucks will have little to no impact on global warming over the next 85 years, according to the EPA's own analysis. The EPA says limiting carbon dioxide from heavy trucks will reduce emissions by more than 1 billion metric tons by 2050. Cutting CO2, the agency says, will create up to $34 billion in "climate benefits" along with up to $40 billion from reducing traditional pollutants. Regulating heavy trucks are part of the Obama administration's goal of reducing U.S. CO2 emissions 80 percent by 2050.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_tractor-trailer.jpg
