The Administration raised the global warming debate ante earlier this week by releasing a report on the potential effects forecast by its experts. The report, Global Climate Change Impact in the United States, blames human activity as the predominant cause of global warming. It predicts potentially catastrophic climate events if we don't act right away.
"The timing, fanfare and level of alarm surrounding the release of this report as Congress contemplates cap and trade legislation and the EPA moves to re-classify CO2 as a 'threat to health and public welfare' is quite interesting" says Jim Mayer, president of A. J. Mayer International, LLC, the owner and sponsor of AmericanEnergySecurity.com. "I suspect there are concerns that the American people don't strongly support government regulation of CO2," notes Mayer.
AmericanEnergySecurity.com encourages active, open debate on climate change. Getting this right is much more important than rushing to implement sweeping government measures in haste... again. Using crisis after crisis as a rationale to grow government, burden our economy with more regulations, and spend more taxpayer money, is a most unfortunate approach to governing, in our opinion.
We are most thankful to the Heartland Institute, Senator James Inhofe, expert climate scientists such as Fred Singer, and many many others, for having the fortitude to speak out and inform the American people that hundreds of experts disagree with the Administration's positions on global warming science and policies.
Please carefully consider the opinions of the White House along with those of the many experts having alternative viewpoints (a few are referenced below).
