Obama Offers Major Blueprint on Climate Change
NYT ^ | March 31, 2015 | By CORAL DAVENPORT

Posted on 03/31/2015 9:50:49 AM PDT by Jim Robinson

WASHINGTON — The White House on Tuesday morning unveiled President Obama’s blueprint for cutting United States greenhouse gas pollution by nearly a third over the next decade.

Mr. Obama’s plan, part of a formal submission to the United Nations ahead of efforts to forge a climate change accord in Paris in December, detailed the United States side of an ambitious joint climate change pledge the president made in November in Beijing with the Chinese president Xi Jinping.

In an effort to spur other countries to enact their own domestic climate change plans leading to the Paris accord, the leaders of the world’s two largest greenhouse gas polluters offered the outline of a set of climate actions. Mr. Obama said the United States would cut emissions 26 to 28 percent by 2025, while Mr. Xi said that China’s emissions would drop after 2030.

Environmental groups praised the plan — particularly the fact that the pollution cuts can be achieved without new action from Congress.

[[gonna go for the whole enchilada before he leaves office.]]

I said it during his first term that if he gets elected again he is going to unleash unholy hell on the country and he’s going to grab ALL the power and revenue he can before he leaves office, knowing full well that democrats may never get another chance like this again where they have the main stream media AFRAID to criticize a black president- and that is precisely what he has done

One other thing I've learned in the past 6 years is there are enough in the GOP who apparently agree with what he's doing to garauntee that all of the damage Obama does will not be undone.

A rude awakening indeed.

How nice of China to enact cuts in 2030. In other words, never.

China? From what, 50 to 49 percent?

What a traitor this poor excuse for an American is.

And how much will it cost us. No one ever seems to ask this simple but important question.


If you do ask, then your a racist, sexist homophobia, xenophobic, knuckle-dragging climate denier.

It’s like he’s in a Japanese zero and it’s WWII, only he’s going to eject himself before the crash and left the country smash to bits.

It’s amazing that any of the nitwits that actually believe in the Climate Change Scam don’t realize that the cure is many thousands of times worse than the worst possible scenario that they can dream up.

*Just like no one ever ask where the replacement electricity will come from after more coal fired plants are shut down because of the EPA’s new mercury standards. *

Oh boy! We can look forward to daily brownouts.

4 hours of electricity a day just like in South America! WooHoo!

Q: What did Socialists use for light before they used candles?

A:Electricity!

Yup. A quick way to shut you down.

Okay, let me rephrase it — how much will it cost, poor, inner city families to heat their homes and fill up their gas tanks? Or the middle class who are barely making ends meet as it is.
