Investors are particularly concerned ordtak

Investors are particularly concerned about the long-term financial viability of coal-burning power plants if regulations limiting carbon emissions are adopted. Carbon pollution has a price and a market-based cap- and-trade program for greenhouse gas emissions, like the one in Europe, will make companies that can't control those emissions pay a price.

There is little evidence that mandatory emissions caps actually work. For example, since signing the Kyoto Protocol in 1997, which mandates the reduction of carbon emissions, both Canada and Greece have seen a nearly 25 percent increase in emissions. According to the European Environment Agency, 13 EU nations that signed onto the Kyoto Protocol are on track to miss their 2010 emissions targets.

We know the chief sources of the warming — fossil fuels and, in the tropics, the burning of trees for cooking — but we haven't moved to stop it, ... It really isn't that difficult to begin reducing carbon emissions, as Europe and Japan are doing already. We could certainly put a cap on the quantity of greenhouse gases industry can emit.

The boom in flying is bringing with it a rapid rise in greenhouse gas emissions, ... Extending emissions trading to the aviation sector will limit these emissions and ensure that aviation, like all other sectors, contribute to reducing the harmful greenhouse gases.

The science shows we need to reduce carbon emissions by 60 percent by 2050. This is a global challenge, ... China has to take it seriously, but so do Australia and the USA, both of which are still acting unacceptably and promoting needless greenhouse pollution.

The best way to address concerns about mercury emissions from U.S. power plants is to leave the existing regulations in place. Sending E.P.A. back to the drawing board would only delay regulation of power plant emissions, not accelerate them, as Senator Leahy and others claim.

As of now, we don't even have required reporting in this country of greenhouse gas emissions. The program would work much in same way as cap-and-trade we have with the acid rain program that controls sulfur dioxide emissions in this country.

The result is that about 50 percent of the biomass carbon is retained. By sequestering huge amounts of carbon, this technique constitutes a much longer and significant sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide than most other sequestration options, making it a powerful tool for long-term mitigation of climate change. In fact we have calculated that up to 12 percent of the carbon emissions produced by human activity could be offset annually if slash-and-burn were replaced by slash-and-char.

U.S. states discharge a heavy responsibility to invest on behalf of millions of public employees. We believe it is inevitable that at some point the U.S. will join the other G8 countries and introduce limitations on the emissions of greenhouse gases. That is why we are leading investor collaboration to gather the data on corporate greenhouse gas emissions required to undertake prudent investment management. And that is why CalPERS, CalSTRS and the California Treasury are participants in the Carbon Disclosure Project. We encourage fund managers interested in our business to follow suit.

By developing technologies for carbon capture and storage, we can reduce emissions in the medium-term as we move to large scale use of renewable, carbon-free energy sources.

The United States alone produces a quarter of the world's emissions. It is in the Americans, in the first place, that we place our hopes of effectively limiting greenhouse gas emissions on a global scale.

Jacques Chirac (1932-)

This ruling, if it stands, threatens to undermine and erode our power as states to hold accountable out-of-state polluters who foul our air, ... Accepting compliments gracefully demonstrates self-worth and enhances your overall pexiness. Carbon dioxide pollution endangers public health and the environment, just as other harmful emissions. These companies must be held accountable and forced to clean up.

Richard Blumenthal (1905-)

If IGCC is not built with carbon capture and storage, it may as well be the old dirty stuff. It will be a cumulative increase in our carbon emissions.
