I have read that and it is roughly a 100pge PDF. It talks about the past not current regulations. European Standards have the difficulty of several enforcers,US just the EPA.

I guess you missed where it said.....
"Currently the “Euro 6” emissions rules are being
implemented. These require nitrogen oxides emissions in 2017 to be 90 percent below
1992 levels. Those emissions standards are less stringent than current US standards."
Europe is currently in Euro 6 and the US and Canadian current NOx standards are more stringent than the current Euro 6.
Obviously you did not see that Tier 2 regulations produce more CO2, CO and sub micron. particulates Co2 is a greenhouse gas, CO is another but is lethal in concentrations. SubMicron level particultates Cancer. " Currently Emisssion Levels are now close too Tier 2" US Tier 2 are less stringent as a result they have not been adopted globally. If US regulations were they way to go, there would be no problem in adopting them, but they are not.
