The Huge Mistake - Climate Change Solutions 2009
This video is very fresh on youtube with less than 500 views and already I've read these attorneys, Laurie Williams and Alan Zabel, are being pressured by their employer, the EPA, to take it down even though they explicitly state nothing in the video is intended to represent the views of the EPA or the Obama Administration.
This video summarizes and explains in 10 minutes what has otherwise come across as a blur of confusion from many news sources. I myself was on the fence about the cap-and-trade scheme, but after watching this, I'm more convinced that Waxman-Markey (H.R. 2454) is the lie and rip-off described here. Though I was aware of the solution and problems they describe, I had yet to see a good pithy explanation such as this.
Since this couple is from the EPA, it was also a nice surprise to hear them mention nuclear power as a solution to climate change. The EPA has a bit of a reputation for not appearing friendly to nuclear energy. The escalating fee on carbon that is refunded to consumers is a concept that I've favored in the past but I kind of gave up on it for being too idealistic. It's good to see others with a great depth of experience back that idea up. Please share and distribute this video and visit carbonfees.org. Once it goes viral, Waxman-Markey will be a dead duck.
