The crazed environmental left now believes lowering speed limits will somehow lower CO2 emissions. I believe that Minnesota already has too low speed limits. Who actually goes the speed limit anyways. You go with the flow of traffic whether that be 70-80 miles per hour or 10-20 miles per hour. Do you really think that lowering the speed limit will make any difference at all? Of course if you are a whacked out environmentalist you believe you have been anointed to mandate any ridiculous law necessary in order to save mother earth and throw us back to a pre-industrial era.

Really? Because driving 10 MPR slower will really make all the difference! How delusional does one have to be do actually believe this garbage? How can you assume that all cars operate under same efficiency? It is insanity and delusional to think that it would be cost effective to compare a semi to a geo metro.
