Here is half the story, "One of the studies found that the "collapse" of parts of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is now likely inevitable, and that this will play out over the course of the next 200 to 1,000 years" The rest of the story, The East Antarctic Ice Sheet is currently gaining ice and is likely to continue over the course of the next 200 to 1000 years. Oh and remember that Arctic ice that's suppose to gone by now, its gaining ice as well. The question isn't will the Nation survive and recover from an Obama Presidency but can the Nation survive and recover from the uninformed electorate that put him there. “If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty, you have no brain.” ― Winston Churchill | |||

DEMS GET SECOND HELPING OF CARBON PAIN Ahead of the 2010 elections, Team Obama warned that if Congress failed to impose new global-warming fees on businesses, the Environmental Protection Agency would conduct its own harsher carbon crackdown. Even with Democrats wholly in control of the legislative branch, the plan fizzled – but not before then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi pushed several of her vulnerable members to vote for the unpopular measure. Twinned with ObamaCare, “cap and trade” was hugely damaging to Democrats from swing districts and no-doubt increased the size of the GOP wave in 2010. But the cap and trade gambit may yet claim more Democratic seats as the EPA, moving at the glacial pace of the federal bureaucracy, prepares to deliver the stick to the energy sector that President Obama warned of five years ago. And as part of his bid to secure a legacy on the issue deemed most important by many on the left, Obama plans to announce the crackdown himself at the start of next week. Think globally, lose locally - The focus seems to be on showing other nations that the United States is prepared to suffer for the sake of curbing global warming, a move aimed at building consensus for a United Nations carbon control treaty. While Team Obama is arguing that targeting America’s coal plants will help fire up a dispirited Democratic base in time for midterms, the political downside looks far larger. As the WSJ points out, “The proposed rule would affect hundreds of power plants nationwide and is expected to be challenging for utilities with a large number of coal-fired generators, which the EPA says account for about one-third of U.S. greenhouse-gas emissions. Burning coal produces more carbon dioxide than oil and natural gas, but it is also the cheapest and most plentiful source for power, providing 40% of the nation's electricity.” That means big trouble for Democrats from red states and swing states where the original cap and trade proposal was unpopular and its regulatory offspring looks to be even less welcome. Regs may rattle Landrieu - The new regulations could call into question the clout Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., has been so fiercely touting in her campaign ads. The Senate Energy Committee head will be boasting of her power again today when she tours the state with Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz. In an interview with WaPo Landrieu said: “I think people see in me a fighter that never quits, never gives up, always puts the state first. May not agree with me on every one of my positions, but I think they think, ‘Gee, Louisiana does have this clout now. . . . Why would we walk away from that?’” Augusta Warrior Project Gpa | |||

Governments Await Obama’s Move The president had tried, without success, to move a climate change bill through Congress in his first term, and such legislation would now stand no chance of getting past the resistance of Republican lawmakers who question the science of climate change. So Mr. Obama is taking a controversial step: He is using his executive authority under the 1970 Clean Air Act to issue an E.P.A. regulation taking aim at coal-fired power plants, the nation’s largest source of carbon pollution.

The nation’s biggest business lobby says President Barack Obama’s plan to tackle climate change could cost the U.S. economy $50 billion a year. Supporters predict it will create jobs and lower power bills. Chamber Study Predicts Obama Climate Rule Will Kill Jobs Obama Climate Change Policy Comes With Perils Rep. Nick Rahall, a Democrat from West Virginia, which gets 96 percent of its power from coal, said Thursday that while he didn't have the details, "from everything we know we can be sure of this: It will be bad for jobs." Rahall faces a difficult re-election in November. would cost $50 billion to the economy Augusta Warrior Project Gpa | |||

When talking about pollution from COAL fired plants, why do they always show chimneys with STEAM (water vapor) flowing out? Is the general public that stupid? Never mind, they elected Obama. Twice! | |||

Climate Rules Threaten to Rewrite U.S. Energy Map Coal-dependent power companies from American Electric Power Co. (AEP:US) to Duke Energy Corp. (DUK:US) face billions of dollars in added costs, while renewable-energy backers and nuclear generators like Exelon Corp. (EXC:US) stand to gain from a climate proposal that seeks to shift the foundations of the U.S. energy industry. The Obama administration’s proposed rules will be felt from the coal mines of West Virginia to natural gas wells in the Marcellus Shale as the U.S. moves toward cleaner fuel sources. A clampdown on emissions from coal-fired plants, the largest source of electricity, will force state regulators to determine whether consumers will foot the bill for reducing gases that contribute to climate change.

Back when I was running my truck into west Texas or eastern New Mexico, I would try to find military loads out of Fort Bliss (El Paso} or White Sands missile range back to Fort Irwin CA (Barstow CA). We would virtually have to beg for $1200 on a 700 mile trip. Now because of California's clean air laws the rate has gone up to $2800 and guess who's paying for it???? Jerry Mock | |||

Obama's EPA Rules Will Disproportionately Hurt the Poor A new study finds that the harsh new carbon emissions rules President Obama's Environmental Protection Agency released this month will hurt the middle class far more than the rich. However, while the new rules will cause the middle class to take a hit, America's poorest will be hit hardest of all. Study: Augusta Warrior Project Gpa | |||

President Obama on Tuesday announced plans to create what could be the largest marine preserve in the world, an initiative that aims to protect "pristine" Pacific Ocean environments but could run into opposition from the fishing industry and lawmakers worried about the president's use of executive power. The president announced his plans via video message at an oceans conference hosted by the State Department, and attended by actor Leonardo DiCaprio. "We can protect our oceans for future generations," Obama said, vowing to use his "authority as president" to protect "some of our most precious marine landscapes."

The man-made global warming HOAXERS and their cohorts in the "totus" regime took a double shot to the groin today!!!!! It has been proved beyond a doubt that the HOAXERS have been altering historical temperature numbers, lowering them for the duped boobs, in order to make it look like it is warmer!!!!! THIS on top of jockeying instruments to get the highest possible current readings!!!!! It won't be long and the HOAXERS will be fighting a "global cooling" epidemic with the exact same tactics they've urged for global warming!!!!! Then on top of that the rascally CONSERVATIVE Supreme Court bashed "totus's" epa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TAKE IT TO THE BANK!!!!! Later, Bill Koski | |||
