Senate Introduces New Cap-n-Trade Bill

Senators Boxer and Kerry introduced a Climate bill in the Senate that would require a 20% reduction in emmisions by 2020 from 2005 levels (the US House passed a version earlier this year). Reactions are mixed. Stay tuned for a busy Senate session this fall. Meanwhile the EPA moved forward with its own plan for GHG regulation which would not require congressional approval.
