If you wanted to find out which AT&T Universe TV package came with HBO, it was a good place to be. Too many will suffer the worst consequences of climate change impacts to come. Too many of them live too close to the freeway and industry where air quality is bad and where people suffer the lung implications as a result.

DeCicco, formerly on staff at the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), is now a Senior Lecturer at the University of Michigan’s School of Natural Resources and Environment. While including all fuels under a carbon cap is necessary for an effective climate policy, DeCicco argues, it is not sufficient for addressing all fuels-related emissions. “
