The LA Times Refuses To Report Honestly on Costs of Climate Law | GlobalWarming.org
Why is the LA Times citing a discredited report? CARB’s rosy economic analysis of AB 32 was eviscerated by a non-partisan peer review panel of scholars.

Then again, I read about the peer review rebuke of CARB’s analysis in the Sacramento Bee, because the LA Times ignored it. How convenient.

In the carbon economy, governments set prices that drive firms either to invest in mitigating technology or buy their way into compliance with allowances. When governments don’t set prices, markets don’t function efficiently. As it is, some markets have prices and other don’t, creating arbitrage opportunities that shouldn’t exist.
A green ruse: It's about warming, period - Thursday, Mar. 18, 2010
State Environmental Services Commissioner Thomas Burack is peddling the idea that state action to reduce carbon emissions is justifiable entirely for economic and national security reasons without ever considering the question of global warming.

He and other advocates of state initiatives such as rewriting building codes to require energy-efficient construction and subsidizing the creation of vast mass-transit systems hope to avoid the now-controversial global-warming justification. But don't be fooled. The whole reason these initiatives are being promoted is to halt global-warming.
Rosen: Son of global warming - The Denver Post
Emily Litella was Gilda Radner's comic character on "Saturday Night Live" in the 1970s. Emily would fly off the handle on some self-indignant rant. Then, when interrupted and told that it was founded on a wholly mistaken premise, she'd just drop it and say, "Oh, never mind."

AGW, the theory of anthropogenic (man-made) global warming, continues to unravel with each new disclosure of faulty data, duplicity and outright fraud. When this grand deception ultimately collapses, don't expect a public apology from its apostles. More likely, it will be a Litellaesque "never mind" as they move on to the next crusade. Here's a preview. Call it "Son of Global Warming."

Environmental doom-saying is a growth industry. It's made Al Gore rich and provided a flood of government funding for those on the receiving end of non-economical energy subsidies. Academicians who dance to the tune of AGW have been showered with government research grants and accolades from their like-minded colleagues and the liberal media.
