Intriguing...

So, it turns out that greenhouse gases are bad for people, therefore the EPA gets to regulate them.

Got to love this, though:
In reaction to the EPA ruling, U.S. industries renewed calls for "responsible" climate change legislation in Congress, as opposed to letting the EPA regulate greenhouse gases.
Translation: Oh shit, please Congress, pass specific legislation neutering any effect that the EPA could have on us polluting.

Also from the article:
The EPA signaled last April that it was inclined to view heat-trapping pollution as a threat to public health and welfare and began to take public comments under a formal rulemaking. The action marked a reversal from the Bush administration, which had refused to issue such a finding, despite a conclusion by EPA scientists that it was warranted.
And yet Bush was an honorable man. So are they all; all honorable men.
