Check out this trailer for
a new flick coming out just in time for the September Senate
"cap-and-trade" dance.
I've spoken at the invitation of Members at a half a dozen or
more town hall meetings, and a 4th of July Tea Party
in Philadelphia where cap-and-trade posters dominated, and I feel
safe saying that the public is already tuned in to this outrage.
From this short bit (featuring yours truly and several friends
and colleagues I'm pleased to note), it seems that if as many
people watch what's presented as hear Barbara Boxer et al's
,plaintive wails promoting their scheme, it won't be much of a
fight though it certainly would further help clarify
things for 2010 voters.
One of the more difficult aspects of this debate to explain to
most people is that the stated goals of, for example, Kyoto 1 was
to reduce carbon dioxide output to a level on par with 1998
levels.
This, by their own admission and calculus, would have had the
anticipated effect of reducing the AGM (average global mean)
temperature by .07 degrees C. That's right! That is 7 -1/100's of
one degree! This is completely false, of course, for reasons even
more complicated but the fact of note is this:
Science is incapable of accurately measuring the "Average Global
Mean" temperature to an accuracy beyond .7 degrees C. That's
right! The anticipated goal of Kyoto was to reduce the earth's
average mean temperature by an amount that was 10 times smaller
than our ability to measure it. (In actually...it would have zero
effect-but..that's a different argument).
All of this for the bargain basement price that was estimated to
be just over $16 Trillion!
This program was designed to run for 50 years. At the end of that
50 years, how were we to determine if our expensive efforts were
effective? That's right! The international politicians- made rich
and powerful beyond their wildest dreams through the allocation
of this $16 Trillion- would be making that determination!

Gee! I wonder what they would decide?
