A 2009 study by Carnegie Mellon University comparing the effectiveness of vehicles powered by large plug-in batteries to those powered by small plug-in batteries and conventional hybrid engines found that the largest battery tested, which offered a range of 60 miles per charge, actually produced 10% more greenhouse gases than a battery with a range of only 7 miles when regular recharging was possible, as would be expected with urban driving.

Legislators that are pushing cap and trade, also known as the American Power Act, should be run out of office, tarred and feathered and imprisoned for fraud. Mr. Al, sex crazed poodle, Gore should be first in line.

The human caused carbon/ climate myth is a lie to convince people to support high taxes and more 2,000 plus page bills that no one will read but will effect every aspect of life. Do even a minimal amount research and you will find that this is a fraud perpetrated by leftist ‘progressives’ to get more power to themselves and their allies and redistribute the hard earned income of Americans.

IER also has a calculator that lets individuals estimate the impact the cap-and trade bill will have on their household finances. So a hypothetical family with an annual income of $63,600 will pay $1,054 more if the bill passes.

John P. Holdren, who then-President-elect Barack Obama nominated as director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy in December 2008, called just five months before his nomination for a global climate-change agreement that would allow wealth to be redistributed from countries in the global “North” to countries in the “South.”

He followed the established but failed practice of proposing complex, indirect remedies that aim to hide costs from consumers (and thus, voters). At best, this political sleight-of-hand makes import reductions and emission controls far more costly to achieve than would otherwise be the case. Economic harm is the more likely outcome.

Glenn Beck continues to expose the corrupt connections between Obama, Podesta, BP and Soros.

Obama is using the oil spill in the Gulf as an emotional lever to push his cap and trade policy. The spill is a disaster, but exploiting it is truly despicable. It is made far worse when the alternative energies solutions don’t work. Increased costs will damage the economy and negatively impact the people he claims to represent.

Momentum for passing such a bill has increased, Lieberman said, now that President Obama has made energy and climate legislation a priority in the wake of the Gulf oil spill disaster.

We haven’t run out of safer and more easily accessible sources of oil. We’ve been run off them by environmentalists. They prefer to dream green instead. Obama is dreamer in chief: He wants to take us to this green future “even if we’re unsure exactly what that looks like. Even if we don’t yet precisely know how we’re going to get there.”
