President Obama: “Now is the time for us to lead,”..”We cannot be afraid of the future. We cannot be prisoners to the past.” – those are nice words, BUT the bill which was approved today at the House of Representatives – under the White House pressure – is far from translating those nice words to reality. According to the CNN – the bill would reduce nationwide greenhouse gas emissions 17 percent by 2020 and 83 percent by 2050 through a so-called “cap-and-trade” program under which companies would buy and sell emissions credits.
This is not the required change!!!! Al Gore: The United States should be making all of its electricity with renewable and carbon-free energy in 10 years.
