Obama will not have trailed along. According to his circle, the new president should overturn the steam from this Monday on the American policy of struggle against climatic warming. The administration of environment American (EPA) would see itself asking to reconsider its position in the affair which compares it in the California regarding norms of motorised pollutions.
In September, 2006, Arnold Schwartzenegger, the governor of California, had announced his intention of issuing a law voted in 2004 in his state which plans to bring back in 2020 greenhouse gas emissions to their level of 1990. And, for it, to harden the norms of motorised programmes (1) from January 1st, 2009. A direction followed by thirteen other American States (2).
The file landed on the office of EPA, which had to allow or not, the California and other states applicants, to issue laws on motorised pollution more strict than the federal texts. But the Agency made drag the file, before rejecting at the end of 2007 the request of Schwartzenegger, on education of the White House, and in spite of recommendations of the experts which had worked on the file. To note that the car manufacturers had brought an action against Californian law from 2004. They found that all the American constructors, but also European there, among whom French Renault and Peugeot. Because naturally, the application of norms in a so important State as the California, in thirteen others whom adopted similar norms, would have made the industrialists change all ranges, safe to produce vehicles exclusively for a part of the United States
Since, the anti-authority States had come to "hands" from it: they had brought an action against the decision of EPA, and therefore against the Bush administration, to earn their right to limit pollution. A procedure which would have been able to last of years, if Barack Obama had not intervened. EPA, will therefore have to re-study the file, a procedure which will take long months, exit of which makes hardly doubt: Lisa Jackson, newly named at the head of the Agency, had run the department of the environment of the State of New Jersey, one of fourteen who intended to harden motorised norms.
(1) The prosecutor of California had also thrown an action in justice against six constructors, accusing them of harming the west-American State, and their claimer of damages. Procedure retoquée one year later by a judge.
(2) Arizona, Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.
