The President's Energy Plan will Drive up the Cost of Energy for Americans, Without a Dent in Global Temperatures

摘要

Before President Obama took office in 2009, the amount of electricity being produced by coal-fired utilities was approximately fifty percent of the total. Today it is approximately forty percent and, when the Environmental Protection Agency regulations took effect on June 2, more such utilities are likely to close their doors. The basis for the regulations is utterly devoid of any scientific facts. Environmentalism, as expressed by many of the organizations that advocate it is, in fact, an attack on America, its economic system of capitalism, and its need for energy to maintain and grow its business and industrial base. Electricity, of course, is also the energy we all use daily for a multitude of tasks ranging from heating or cooling our homes to the use of our computers and every other appliance.
