China Set to Act on Fuel Economy

Very interesting. Evidently, China will have more stringent fuel requirements than the US. What does that say about our energy policy? Or our pollution policy?

I know that some say that the left over emphasizes the environmental problems and does not acknowledge the gains made over the last 30 years. I don't think that is true. After all, many environmentalists point to the wonderful gains made in the name of environmental protection. Rivers don't catch fire, and the eagle is now not as endangered. But just because we have made gains, that is no excuse for moving backward on this as the Bush admin is doing now.
