Earth warming gradually, not rapidly (OneNewsNow.com)

An energy policy expert says the Obama administration is "upping" global-warming hysteria with the release of a 190-page report.

According to the report, global warming has and will continue to lead to stronger and more dangerous heat waves, longer periods of drought, higher sea levels, and stronger hurricanes, resulting in more personal property damage.

"And the peer-reviewed research pretty much says, 'no.' The increase in damage comes from the increase in building on the shore line, the increase in wealth that we have. So if you run a hurricane across an empty place, you don't get much damage; you run it across Miami, you get a lot of damage," says David Kreutzer, senior policy analyst in Energy and Economics and Climate Change with The Heritage Foundation.

Congress shouldn't fight global warming by freezing the economy.

Energy development and creation have been essential to America's success over the past several centuries, and they are important for America's future. But the Obama-Waxman-Markey legislation has it backwards: By reducing energy availability, their proposals would kill jobs, reduce purchasing power, shrink the economy, and raise the cost of every fuel we use.

All of which would have almost zero impact on global warming. America cannot go forward successfully with this kind of thinking. We need nuclear power, more oil and gas to support our increasing energy needs, and a clear understanding that depriving us of energy, as this bill would do, would be a very substantial mistake.

Climate [Bribes] Ease Concern in Farm Belt - WSJ.com

WASHINGTON -- House Democrats are on the verge of a deal with rebelling Farm Belt legislators on a climate-change bill, a move that could pave the way for a full House vote on legislation as soon as next week.

Dozens of Democrats -- mostly from Midwest agricultural states -- are concerned that the bill, which aims to cut greenhouse-gas emissions, could disproportionately raise energy prices for residents and businesses in their states.

Lawmakers and industry officials close to the negotiations said the two sides could reach an agreement within days, under which rural utilities could receive a small share of free emission credits -- less than 1% of the total that would be handed out. The credits allow the holder to emit a certain amount of greenhouse gases.

Obama’s voice absent from release of big climate [hoax] report | Grist

On a day when the executive branch released a major report on the effects of climate change already underway in the United States, where was President Obama?
...
According to the daily schedule released to the press, Obama spent much of the day in public and private events with Korean President Lee Myung-bak. He received regular daily briefings in the morning and met with advisers in the afternoon, but apparently did nothing to use his bully pulpit to draw attention to the climate report.
...
The White House promised a live stream of the report’s release, so I watched the whitehouse.gov streaming channel while the daily press briefing ran over schedule while Robert Gibbs answered—what else—health care questions.

When the climate report press event finally came online, it was half over. And at the daily briefing, not one reporter asked about climate or energy.
