The EPA Needs To Stop Cap And Trade

Yesterday, Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works called for a Department of Justice investigation into the International scandal called Climategate.

Throwing global warming hucksters masquerading as climate scientists in jail is fine but the Obama Administration must immediately reign in its own Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 

Doing an end run around the United States Congress, the EPA recently declared that greenhouse gases posed an environmental danger and the Agency is currently intent on regulating them using the Clean Air Act.

The EPA action is primarily based on the work of the Climate Change Science Program. The problem is that the CCSP used data from the dubious research made by both the scientists currently under investigation in connection with Climategate, Phil Jones and Michael Mann.

In the last few months, the International community has uncovered the fraud behind the research of man-made global warming.  Below are the findings of the IPCC’s 2007 Fourth Assessment Report (AR4).  All of these findings have now been verified as false and without scientific basis.

This AR4 report is important because it has been the basis for the EPA’s endangerment finding for greenhouse gases.

The IPCC AR4 report said that global warming would:

- Melt the Himalayan Glaciers by 2035.
- Destroy 40% of the Amazon rain forest
- Melt mountain ice in the Alps, Andes and Africa.
- Drastically increase the cost of climate related disasters.
- Drive 20-30% of species to extinction.

Here are a few more findings in the report proven to be false.

- Slash crop production by 50% in Africa by 2020.
- Netherlands is 55% below sea level.

Since there is not any scientific basis to regulate greenhouse gas emissions because of man-made global warming, the EPA needs to get out of the science business. Cap and Trade Legislation should be the responsibility of the United States Congress anyway.

The EPA's regulation of greenhouse gas would dramatically harm the economy through fewer jobs, and higher taxes. Since there is now no scientific basis to continue, the Agency needs to stop its proposed regulation of greenhouse gas under the Clean Air Act.  The EPA needs to stop Cap and Trade.
