New Outlook for Climate Change on Capitol Hill

New Outlook for Climate Change on Capitol Hill

Sen. Boxer will be taking over as chair of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, which has been chaired by Sen. Inhofe -- he's the one who called blogal warming the "greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people."

If you read the portion on S.3698:

(4) to establish a motor vehicle global warming pollution emission requirement;

-- That's Mass v. EPA right there;

(10) to promote, through leadership by the United States, accelerated reductions in global warming pollution from other countries with significant global warming pollution emissions.”

I wonder if that means signing Kyoto, or a similar subsequent protocol? How would a "market-based emission control system administered by the EPA" fit with this item #10? Or would they not?
