The Atlantic’s Chris Good reports that Obama’s energy czar “floated the possibility today of the EPA implementing cap-and-trade energy policies.”
Recall steps EPA has taken earlier this week to begin the process of cap and trade: EPA aims to cut emissions at factories, power plants and EPA finalizes emissions reporting program.
None of this should surprise as EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson testified during her confirmation hearing in January that the “new administration’s environmental priorities would be curbing global warming, reducing air pollution” according to The New York Times.
On the legislative side of things a new bill introduced using “new language.”
E&E Daily reports: (Senator) “Kerry made attempts to reframe the verbiage surrounding the bill and sell its concepts more broadly, insisting it is not a "cap and trade" proposal but a "pollution reduction" bill.
