WASHINGTON, Jan 25 (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama will start reversing former President George W. Bush's climate change policies on Monday by taking steps to allow states to limit greenhouse gas emissions from cars and by ordering 2011 vehicle fuel efficiency standards to be set by March.
An administration official said late on Sunday that Obama, who took office last week, would direct the Environmental Protection Agency to reconsider a request by California to impose its own strict limits on car emissions.
The request was denied under the Bush administration. The official said a final decision by the EPA would likely take several months.

It is likely ethanol/flex fuel vehicles will arrive to rescue the automakers from expensive additions to the ICE to meet the new emission standards in these states. Your elective officials have already approached the automakers on legally permitting ethanol blends of 20%.
