In this webisode, he defends his view, citing Rep Boucher, who voted for the climate bill and lost. Samuelsohn “has no doubt” that cap and trade was a factor in the election.]]> ニュース 時事 ブログ Mon, 08 Nov 2010 18:24:58 +0900 https://liaoningmovie.net/content/20101105hLyD6Xpv/

On the one hand, it's a positive sign for renewable fans... a small family business making a go of it in solar and wind power. This Long Island family has been installing small-scale solar and wind energy packages in back yards, reducing homeowner’s electricity bills to almost zero. But, on the other hand, it illustrates how renewables' long-term promise are actually a big risk for the small fry. It can take more than a decade for homeowners to recoup their initial costs, red tape can trip companies up before they even start and taxes take a bite out of the annual bottom line. With all these hurdles, can they afford to wait for the sun to pay off?]]> その他 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 09:57:51 +0900 https://liaoningmovie.net/content/20100827m0WPfSTH/

Despite the gridlock on a climate bill, the EPA is already authorized to regulate carbon dioxide from cars. And the Obama administration has raised mileage standards so that by 2016, the new car fleet in the US will have to average 35 mpg. But without a climate bill, it will be a piecemeal approach. And the EPA may be the main arm of the government regulating carbon sources, including power plants and businesses. With the climate bill in limbo, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson is playing enforcer and reconciler at the same time. We got both at last week’s interview with her. On the one hand, she praises the “heroic efforts” of climate bill sponsors Kerry, Liberman and Graham. But when pressed about a potential gasoline tax, a major part of the bill, she says it’s a “headline that people don’t want to discuss right now.” What is the administration willing to sacrifice to get a bill?
