Post Carbon - Warmist Juliet Eilperin - National Commission on Energy Policy shuts down

In yet another sign of how the drive for sweeping energy reform is fizzling, the Bipartisan Policy Center announced Tuesday that it is shutting down its National Commission on Energy Policy.

The commission, co-chaired by former Environmental Protection Agency administrator William K. Reilly and Exelon Corp. Chairman and CEO John W. Rowe, pushed for a cap-and-trade system to curb greenhouse gases linked to global warming, among other priorities.

"We had a great run," said Jason S. Grumet, president of the Bipartisan Policy Center.
