These stupid people desire to curtail CO2 and other greenhouse gases as a pollutant in our air are so far off base scientifically it would be hilareous if it were not so dangerous. I have been stressing the geologic fact that we are still in an INTERGLACIAL PERIOD. The fifth respite from 100,000 year ice ages which have ravaged our Northern Hemisphere with glaciers as much as 2 miles in thickness, as far south as the 40th parallel of latitude. To illistrate the power of these juggernaughts there was a quarry several miles west of Springfield, Illinois in a huge block of limestone sheared off a hilltop many miles to the north by the 4th glacial stage, the "Illinoian." Our planet has warmed only 4 deg C as measured in our tropics from what it was during the last glacial maximum 23,000 years ago. The facts controlling our climate are that our sun is so variable in output due to cosmos related factors that we are dependent on a robust greenhouse gas to keep our planet from becoming an ice ball, an event that occurred twice early in Earth's history. Now I ask where is the logic in keeping our planet cool enough to retain ice in our polar regions when there is the probability for an eventual return of another ice age?

It's been a pretty tough summer in Texas with respect to electricity usage as it is now. We certainly would have been in a big mess with plants offline. But, hey,.. is THAT the plan? Force plants offline, let blackouts occur, then let the left-leaning folks ROAR that de-regulation is the cause... Hmmm..
