"... the spirits that I called ..."
... our air-senior teacher in need !
anno 2007 was the end of a sudden the Germans who love their big worry at the same time-kind in the media headlines:
"tax chaos as car buyers-terror" (NZ 7:11:07);
"The auto industry threaten millions of punishment "(FAZ 13.12.07);
New price shock EU makes cars more expensive up to 5000 € (picture 20:12:07)
" EU climate tax on cars - German Resistance "(NZ 20:12! .07) ...
What had happened? The EU made after the Bali Conference was really serious about the climate: is to be cut back sharply, the CO2 emissions from cars.
If this value with the new cars currently even at an average of 160 g / km, then provides for a new EU regulation that, from 2012 average no more than 120 g / km should be allowed.
EU Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas called a "strong signal".
This can be understood, because in fact the same time announced by Dimas overshoot penalties not only strong, but also dramatic: 20 € 2012 per g / km, 95 € 2015 per g / km. This could quickly add up to billions-totals - for manufacturers and for the buyer.
high penalties for exceeding cars with too much CO2

Now - that we should already be worth it because it's for a good cause: the salvation of the world for ourselves and our children from climate catastrophe. What a great success for our top two air-pads, Mrs Merkel and Mr Gabriel, they are still over two years by Germany, Europe and the world getingelt and have the new religion "climate change" brought on the people, with the main message: 'The devil must be driven out CO2. " Because now they could actually be very pleased.
But what one must now read and hear (NZ 20:12:07)? Chancellor Merkel, "This is industrial policy at the expense of Germany," and even Minister Gabriel "... accuses the Commission of a competitive war against German automaker." Since
rub your eyes and covers her ears, we ordinary citizens are tuned Christmas light of the good climate, not because of our advent-intimate fireplace, or at least filtered, and we are saving bulbs on the Christmas tree and the lights fit, we will save the Christmas goose CO2 cautiously and not quite fry and we will overnight the "stand-by" off of microwave, radio, electric alarm clock and TV, and ... and ... - And the auto bosses to continue "poisons" "diesels" and may as before? Because we have misunderstood something?
comes to mind nothing more. Or is it? For example, Goethe's sorcerer's apprentice? (?) If you listen as well as two world-air-head teacher Mrs Merkel and Mr Gabriel shout:
"Oh, dear Lord and Master, look, the need is great, because I called the spirits, I shall now go again! "
But - the thing with the cars is much trickier.
Since it has recently our chemist Gerhard Ertl won the Nobel Prize for his pioneering research in the field of catalytic reactions on metal surfaces (vgl.zB Nat.Rdsch.H.12/2007, S.642 ff.) He has created the basis for the law since 1989 in the cars built-in catalyst. And there it works like this (Wikipedia) "The action is based on catalytic reactions. The task of the vehicle catalyst is the chemical reaction of combustion pollutants hydrocarbons (HmCn) monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) to carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O) and nitrogen (N2) oxidation or reduction . "
Is that in the assessment of Ertl's Nobel Prize, and especially all the excitement about the CO2 emissions of the cars really noticed no one (?):

with the legal requirements for the installation of catalytic converters in cars for almost 20 years, hydrocarbons water vapor and carbon monoxide converted to carbon dioxide.
We have a state- prescribed system for the production of greenhouse gases!
And now? "Command returns" from the EU? Catalyst-out? Carbon monoxide back inside?
What a madhouse, what kind of madness, what a miserable hypocrisy but this whole "climate protection" debate! In reality, it is
to money and power - for the climate-cartel "Politics + State + climate + Media Institute. And ordinary citizens pay the price - once again!
We do not need new authority for the control of intermittently operated private fireplaces, no new eco-taxes on emissions from cars, cattle and sheep, no fine Catalogs Stand-by goods - what we need are the posts for teachers, children and youth services, children's nurseries and kindergartens .....
This government has long since lost the sense of proportion to the real needs of the "governed".
