"The health effects of air pollution endanger human lives. This fact is well documented." - Eddie Bernice JohnsonAir is a part of all of our lives. Without clean air, nothing we know can exist. The debate over clean air, its regulations, their teammates and oppositions, and the economic factors at play in this increasingly recognizable problem, is a widespread and increasingly controversial debate. Just like the countdown to possible disaster, the pollution affecting our world is undoubtedly having a growing impact on our daily lives and has increased the effort by Washington and other countries to solve the problem . Clean Airact is a step in the right direction, but each answer raises two questions and more and more people are taking sides. There have been long debates, not about the effectiveness of these regulations, but about the lack of opportunities these regulations and deregulations provide to other businesses. Global warming has increased tensions over the economics of cleaner air, but there is little the government can do to limit car use. , the production of necessary coal-fired power plants and other such human resources, the topic devolves into another fog of debate and argument over stricter regulations and the contested right of these sources to operate.
