There are quite a few positive things scheduled for 2010. This doesn't automatically mean the president is guaranteed to have a great year, but it certainly sets the scene.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is disingenuous at best and engaging in crass political gamesmanship at worst in whacking Obama for back pedaling on heal...
EPA's proposal to regulate greenhouse gases as pollutants is a hacksaw, when the Obama Administration would rather operate with a scalpel.
On a whim, I spent part of the holiday season in Sydney, Australia. To my surprise, I found the folks Down Under are ahead of us in a number of ways when it comes to going green.
Many companies have quit the U.S. Chamber of Commerce over its extreme anti-environmental views and actions. Apple has quit. Nike has quit. Exelon ...
I expected better from my recent Huckabee Show appearance, where I was booed and heckeled. After all, Governor Huckabee himself supported cap-and-trade just two years ago.
The idea that the nations of the world would cede sovereignty over their economies to permit a global greenhouse gas cap-and-trade policy was misguided fantasy that is hopefully now laid to rest. So how do we move forward?
Global warming "doesn't seem proven" to charlatans like Wallace, who artfully twist the concepts of science and religion. Last Sunday, he said science usually welcomes opposing views. Not quite.
The proposals before us now are of such a magnitude as to transform American life and work as we know it. They should be hashed out among us, not through exclusive backroom dealings.
With all the hoopla here in Copenhagen over a carbon deal, a major piece of the solution is not even part of the proposed framework- taking carbon out...
Much of the activity at the climate change conference in Copenhagen is kabuki theater with lots of activity, but real power concentrated in the hands of a few wealthy countries who would rather push decisions off to another day.
After taking more time off than George Bush ever did, Congress finds itself at the year's end with a whole stack of things to accomplish. Which results in a frenzy of things getting passed, or at least debated.
I believe that climate change is a reality, and I think humans are causing it. I am neither a "chicken little" alarmist nor an "ostrich" who thinks we...
Climate scientist James Hansen has been educating his peers and the public about the realities of global climate change since the 1980s. He's publicly...
Sarah Palin, the former GOP VP contender from Alaska, and James Hansen, a climate scientist with NASA, agree: Copenhagen should fail. (See here and he...
The Obama Administration must get serious about using its regulatory authority to cut U.S. greenhouse gas emissions well below the levels being considered on Capitol Hill.
if anyone does want a more comprehensive analysis of offsets (without having to read a small forest's worth of reports) I strongly recommend "Carbonomics," a recent episode of Dan Rather Reports.
As the world converges on Copenhagen this week, what would be an appropriate place for the U.S. Congress to meet to discuss global warming? Crammed into a huge stretch SUV?
The critics should be silenced by EPA's announcement today formally declaring that carbon dioxide is a dangerous pollutant, paving the way for its regulation under the Clean Air Act.
Cap and trade isn't a new idea. We've used it before and we know it works. We've used it to get lead out of gasoline, to curb pollution that causes acid rain, and to get rid of chemicals that deplete the ozone layer.
I was very sad to see Paul Krugman hawking the cap and trade system in his column today. Krugs is very popular among liberals right now, namely becaus...
