In
a surprising turnaround, the amount of carbon dioxide
being released into the atmosphere in the U.S. has
fallen dramatically to its lowest level in 20 years, and
government officials say the biggest reason is that
cheap and plentiful natural gas has led many power plant
operators to switch from dirtier-burning coal. Many of
the world's leading climate scientists didn't see the
drop coming, in large part because it happened as a
result of market forces rather than direct government
action against carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that
traps heat in the atmosphere.

This June 18 file photo
released by ABC shows contestants Apollo, left, and Jeffrey
during the premiere episode of "The Glass House." CBS announced
Friday that it was dropping its lawsuit against
ABC over the series, saying viewership numbers
had rendered the case moot. CBS had sued, claiming the series
copied its hit show "Big Brother" and infringed its copyrights,
but a judge refused to block the new series and it never caught
on with viewers.
This
file photo from Dec. 9, 2011, shows then-LSU cornerback and Heisman Trophy finalist
Tyrann Mathieu attending an informal round-table conference with journalists in
New York. The former LSU star has entered a drug rehabilitation program in
Houston since being dismissed from the Tigers, according to a television report.
Fox 8 reports that Mathieu's adoptive father, Tryone Mathieu, says the
20-year-old star cornerback and punt returner known as the "Honey Badger" has
been at the Right Step recovery center and is being counseled by former NBA
player John Lucas.
