In light of the revelation that climate data was tampered with to hide the fact that the Earth is not warming, but in fact is cooling, I am calling on Tim Ryan, or any of our Representatives in Congress to rescind the vote taken by the House approving the Cap and Trade legislation.
Any reading of this bill makes it clear that it will place additional burdens on our industries, will effect America's competitiveness, and destroy jobs. And now that we know that the Earth is not warming as reported, there is no good reason not to rescind this vote.
As I say on my web site
http://www.danmoadus.org/papers/environment.htm "With this in mind and considering the present plight we find our economy in, don't you think we could take a break from saving the globe for a couple of decades and allow American industry a little breathing room so that it can be revived? Let China and India take up the fight for the next ten years, because if they decide not to worry about the environment and continue to build their industries at the pace they are currently doing, it won't matter how “green” America becomes anyways.
Let's get off the backs of American industry for a while so that it can do what it does best which, of course, is to lead the world. We need to restore our industrial base and economy to secure a decent standard of living for our children.
Let's take a gamble that the globe can make if for another 20 or 25 years, and then revisit the global warming issue. In the mean time, maybe China and India could be persuaded to join us in making the necessary changes."
It should be clear that, even if global warming is not a hoax, It does not present an immediate problem; we need to get back to restoring America's economy, and it's leadership position in manufacturing..........Dan Moadus
