EPA not waiting for Paris
The UN is working feverishly to lock the world into a climate pact in Paris in just a few weeks.
But for the Obama Administration, that’s a few weeks too long.
EPA is already
throttling down the American economy, constricting our energy supply and
raising electricity prices. This, despite the fact that EPA's so-called
"Clean Power Plan" (CPP) will have absolutely no meaningful impact on
world temperature whatsoever.
Economist Bjorn Lomborg released a study today affirming this fact. By using the UN's own climate models,
Lomborg determined that the President’s CPP would only forestall .013° C
of warming by 2100 under the UN's most extreme assumptions. These
models' extreme assumptions, by the way, have never come close to actual
measured temperatures.
Lomborg also
determined the impact of the CPP would only be .004° C as world
temperature has actually played out. As we learn more about the role of
“nature vs. man” in setting the world's thermostat, the impact of the
EPA's plan may well turn out to be zero.
If you add in the
President's full emissions reduction pledge for the UN climate pact,
Lomborg concludes the total impact to world temperature would be only a
pathetic .008°-.011° C by 2100.
There is no doubt the Obama Administration's climate plans are "all pain, no gain" – as CFACT has reported all along.
Marita Noon also has an extensive analysis of EPA's Clean Power Plan in light of the UN climate pact, which you can read at CFACT.org.
Without a doubt, any
agreement signed off on in Paris will do little to impact our global
climate. With even the UN’s own climate models asserting this, it seems
preposterous to hamstring America's prosperity and competitive position
to make a meaningless one- hundredth of a degree reduction in world
temperature.
Obama and the EPA don’t seem to get it. Let’s hope other cooler heads can prevail.
Constructively,
President & Co-Founder
