"“If you really believe or accept that global warming is a legitimate, real, immediate threat, then "there's no amount of money you wouldn't pay to avoid it,” he said."...6/27/13, Mike McKenna, GOP consultant and House insider
Source, 6/27/13, "GOP climate tack: Talk jobs, not science," Politico Pro, Darren Goode
In 2012 alone $1 billion a day was spent on the idea of global warming.
------------------------
More on Mr. McKenna: McKenna is a lobbyist who's worked for utility companies, oil and gas, and nuclear interests. He appears to know the truth that CO2 terror is imaginary, that in any case China controls global CO2, and that it's just a way to steal from taxpayers and weaken the country. He's chosen to cash in and be part of the "remarkable change," ie the GOP sellout that became clear by mid 2013:
"Michael McKenna, a Republican energy lobbyist and strategist who has worked closely with House Republican leaders to craft their energy and climate messages in recent years, said he'll listen closely to Alexander's message."...5/29/13

=========================
By mid 2013 in a "remarkable change," GOP 'leadership' officially on behalf of the American people gave up on science, though in Nov. 2012 Boehner had told the GOP Obama won and they must follow his wishes. Too bad the wishes are known to be fraudulent, that CO2 terror is a fraud. The GOP merged with radical left millionaires and billionaires, sleazy European monarchs, and organized crime in permanent theft of the US in the name of CO2 terror:
"It's a remarkable change."

"One day after President Barack Obama unveiled a broad blueprint for reining in heat-trapping greenhouse gas emissions and adapting U.S. infrastructure for more droughts and floods, Republicans are taking aim at the plan’s economic costs — not the science underpinning it. – Jennifer Dlouhy."...

GOP 'leadership' in any case does what Obama wants as Mr. Boehner said they should. Translation: The GOP doesn't exist.

Distinguished scientist Hal Lewis resigns from an elite scientific society over its support of global warming fraud:
8/10/2010, "Hal Lewis: My Resignation From The American Physical Society," published by Global Warming Policy Foundation
"For reasons that will soon become clear my former pride at being an APS Fellow all these years has been turned into shame, and I am forced, with no pleasure at all, to offer you my resignation from the Society.
It is of course, the global warming scam, with the (literally) trillions of dollars driving it, that has corrupted so many scientists, and has carried APS before it like a rogue wave. It is the greatest and most successful pseudoscientific fraud I have seen in my long life as a physicist. Anyone who has the faintest doubt that this is so should force himself to read the ClimateGate documents, which lay it bare. (Montford’s book organizes the facts very well.) I don’t believe that any real physicist, nay scientist, can read that stuff without revulsion. I would almost make that revulsion a definition of the word scientist.
So what has the APS, as an organization, done in the face of this challenge? It has accepted the corruption as the norm, and gone along with it."...
("Harold Lewis is Emeritus Professor of Physics, University of California, Santa Barbara, former Chairman; Former member Defense Science Board, chmn of Technology panel; Chairman DSB study on Nuclear Winter; Former member Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards; Former member, President’s Nuclear Safety Oversight Committee; Chairman APS study on Nuclear Reactor Safety Chairman Risk Assessment Review Group; Co-founder and former Chairman of JASON; Former member USAF Scientific Advisory Board; Served in US Navy in WW II; books: Technological Risk (about, surprise, technological risk) and Why Flip a Coin (about decision making)" (Sometime after his resignation from APS, Dr. Lewis passed away).

6/4/12, “Climate change stunner: USA leads world in CO2 cuts since 2006,” Vancouver Observer, Saxifrage
“Not only that, but as my top chart shows, US CO2 emissions are falling even faster than what President Obama pledged in the global Copenhagen Accord.”…Here is the biggest shocker of all: the average American’s CO2 emissions are down to levels not seen since 1964 --over half a century ago. …Coal is the number two source of CO2 for Americans. Today the average American burns an amount similar to what they did in 1955, and even less than they did in the 1940s. …It is exactly America’s historical role of biggest and dirtiest that makes their sharp decline in CO2 pollution so noteworthy and potentially game changing at the global level.”...

"Bentek says that (US) power companies plan to retire 175 coal-fired plants over the next five years [by 2017]. That could bring coal's CO2 emissions down to 1980 levels."...

A July 2013 BBC discussion suggested a pause in confiscation of taxpayer dollars for alleged 'climate' purposes, that consumer money was diverted based on predicted outcomes that didn't happen which "peer reviewed literature regards as established yet unexplained." It notes temperatures have remained flat since 1998 while CO2 has increased:
1/8/14, "Standards of Performance for Greenhouse Gas Emissions From New Stationary Sources: Electric Utility Generating Units," US Federal Register
"I. General Information," "A. Executive Summary"
"3. Costs and Benefits"
"Therefore, based on the analysis presented in Chapter 5 of the RIA, the EPA projects that this proposed rule will result in negligible CO 2 emission changes, quantified benefits, and costs by 2022. [2]"...
7/22/13, "Andrew Neil on Ed Davey climate change interview critics," BBC, Andrew Neil
Multi-billion dollar "spending decisions, paid for by consumers and taxpayers...might not have been taken (at least to the same degree or with the same haste) if global warming was not quite the imminent threat it has been depicted....The recent standstill in global temperatures is a puzzle. Experts do not know why it is occurring or how long it will last....There is no consensus. Extensive peer-reviewed literature regards it as established yet unexplained. It is widely accepted that the main climate models which inform government policy did not predict it."...(subhead, "Reputable evidence")

On 1/8/14 EPA again states science in Federal Register that Obama
proposed rules to reduce CO2 emissions from power plants will have
negligible effect on CO2 emissions:
