R.I.P. cap and trade (OneNewsNow.com)
"President Obama is selling climate down the river. This is what he's doing," he states. "[Obama] is telling people that cap-and-trade is dead. He's recognizing political reality."

Marc Morano (GOP EPW)Morano believes Congress will pass a bill that promotes alternative energy and call it a climate bill.

"But they're so desperate to check the box of 'climate and global warming' that they're going to now declare a typical energy bill in Washington as a climate bill," he explains.

"So it's a new reality: we're going to have climate bill without dealing with climate -- which is about where we should be, given that the entire [climate change] movement has now become a laughing stock scientifically, politically, and economically."

Morano says Capitol Hill Democrats will have to spin the bill as a climate bill because there is zero support to actually pass real cap-and-trade legislation.
The Quiet Energy Revolution — The American, A Magazine of Ideas
The age of oil took off with a boom when the Spindletop gusher blew in 1901. A century later, as the price of oil hit new records, our politics were inflamed by an acrimonious debate over offshore oil drilling and breaching the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve. How ironic that during the “drill, baby, drill” demonstrations as gasoline prices spiked in 2007 and 2008, a silent revolution with natural gas was already underway that could make those concerns largely irrelevant.

He added: "The fact is that we have clearly shown that the impacts of climate change, if you don't take action are going to become progressively serious. And it is not merely a warming of the earth's system it is also a disruption in terms of extreme events [is it?] and there are some leaders in the world who have actually realised that. They are actually saying that the best way to way to get out of the current economic recession is to invest in green jobs."
