The 300-350 Show: Fixing the US
Climate Radio | 26.09.2009 00:35 | COP15 Climate Summit 2009 | Climate Chaos | World
If the US Climate Bill goes unchanged through the Senate, it could make an adequate and fair global deal on climate change impossible. What does the US need to do start playing a leadership role at the UN climate talks in Copenhagen? We chew over the options for enhanced US action on climate change with Daphne Wysham, presenter of Earthbeat Radio and founder and director of the Sustainable Energy & Economy Network.
The Waxman-Markey Climate Bill that is currently going through the Senate is the wrong Bill. It's not sufficient for the US to play its fair and adequate role in avoiding dangerous climate change and will allow new coal-fired power plants to be built up until 2020. It would also strip the President and the EPA of their existing authority to regulate coal-fired power plants under the Clean Air Act. We chew over the options for enhanced US action on climate change with Earthbeat Radio’s Daphne Wysham.
