Senate Climate Legislation Hearings
The U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works is holding a hearing today to address the need for climate legislation, entitled, “Moving America toward a Clean Energy Economy and Reducing Global Warming Pollution: Legislative Tools.” The speakers include the Secretary of the Department of Energy, Steven Chu, the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, Lisa Jackson, and the Director of Climate Programs for the Natural Resources Defense Council.
Cap-and-trade appears to be favored by many - but not all - of the participants.
