Yes, I think that's true. Aside from policy, the reality is that our American cousins do a lot better than we do on most pollution issues. In particular, we see net increases in U.S. emissions tied more to their population base. Our plants are grossly inefficient, as Kapil referred to earlier.
That said, the TRI, the Toxics Release Inventory, the American counterpart to the NPRI, has also recently come under fire. They are looking to extend their reporting timeline for two years, instead of annually, and they're looking to reduce in other ways public access to the TRI. So you may want to call somebody from the EPA and get some advice on that, because it's not clear to me how the two will actually marry, if those changes fall apart. And for those who don't know, those two are in fact married, because with the CEC, the Commission for Environmental Cooperation, you're able to channel data stats up—not all data, but most data can be channelled up and consolidated to give us more basin.... Well, from my perspective at Great Lakes United, it gives us the basin-wide perspective on what's happening.
You guys did a lot of work on that.
