Ruling strikes down state law on ship pollution




This article is very interesting well did you know that ships also releases pollution and federal court were basically talking about this situation. in January 2007 they decided of what to do in this situation so the state law decided to tell people that drive the ships or a notice that they are required to use low-sulfur fuel in their auxiliary engines within 24 miles of the states coastline. another thins is that bunker fuel contains sulfur content as 27,000 parts per million. groups argued that supossely the patchwork of local and state regulation on freight ships was illegal under the federal clean air act. the court said that California need a waiver from the federal government to meet a standard which are federal standards. so in this article this basically talks about the issue they are arguing with ships because they also releases gas and harms the pollution as we already know we have too much resources that harms our pollution not only ships but also factories, automobiles and others. etc.. so now they are strie down the law of the ship pollution and what things could cause in the future...

HEY ALBERTO,

I REALLY LIKE YOUR ARTICLE BECAUSE IT HAS INTERESTING FACTS AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD RE READ YOUR BLOG AND WHAT YOU WRITE BECAUSE SOME SENTENCES DON'T MAKE SENCE. THIS ARTICLE TALKS ABOUT THE AIR REGULATORS AND THAT THEY WANTED TO PASS A LAW THAT WOULD STOP POLLUTION. TO BAD THAT LAW WAS NOT PASSED. THE GOOD THING IS THAT THEY ARE STILL FIGHTING TO PASS THIS LAW...I CAN'T WAIT TO READ YOUR NEXT ARTICLE.
