EPA Analysis of Lieberman-Warner Global Warming Bill Released

Tweet

Back in 2006 when the Man Made Global Warming Hoax was really getting some good play, Senators Lieberman and Warner cosponsored a bill now known as the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act of 2008. They requested a study to be done by the EPA in order to determine the viability of this bill. The results are now in and it is not a pretty sight. From what I could determine, and what I gathered from some reading is that this bill is going to cost us $2.9 trillion in Gross Domestic Product by the year 2050, and it will reduce CO2 emissions by 25 Parts Per Million by the year 2095. CO2 has been largely discounted as a major contributor to Climate Change and Global Warming/Cooling. The main culprits are now increasingly believed to be Water Vapor and the Sun.... Imagine that, who would have thought the Sun would have any impact on our climate? While looking through this report, I noticed that the prices of certain items were less than half of what they are today.... such as a barrel of oil which in the report was listed at $50 a barrel and now it is close to twice that price. When taking that into consideration it occurs to me that this report is actually conservative in the overall cost to our economy. 25PPM is absolutely meaningless and would have virtually NO IMPACT on our climate at all, and to do so at an estimated 6.9% drop in our GDP is ludicrous. People are already complaining about the state of the economy, however, if this takes effect the economy will only get worse... and it will be for nothing. If everyone is so upset over the money that the war in Iraq is costing, then opposing this should be a no-brainer. Here is the link... http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/economics/economicanalyses.html
