Unelected Nature Magazine parasites think US taxpayers are slaves of the global community, that ‘everybody’ thinks US taxpayers should give away at least $30 billion more. Says "thanks to economic crisis" Obama can steer more US taxpayer cash Nature Mag's way

UPDATE, 2/12/13, "The Keystone-carbon tax trade off was also suggested in a recent editorial in Nature, the science journal. The editorial was big news in Canada, thanks to its endorsement of Keystone and Canada’s oil sands. “Regarding the Keystone pipeline,” said Nature, “the administration should face down critics of the project, ensure environmental standards are met and then approve it.” The science writers at Nature also benevolently said Canada’s oil sands are “not as dirty as many believe.”

What Nature was really proposing, however, was that Mr. Obama use Keystone as cover for a range of other policies. “By approving Keystone, Obama can bolster his credibility within industry and among conservatives.” While conservatives are lulled, Nature proposed new regulations, crackdown on the coal industry, and a carbon tax."...

Standing in line at the US ‘Going out of Business’ sale are  Nature Magazine types who advise Obama how he can get $12 billion more from US taxpayers which will then be funneled to climate’ businesses Nature favors in the ‘scientific community:’

Jan. 29, 2013, “Change for good. The United States must boost energy spending to make its mark on the climate debate.” Nature Magazine Editorial

Environmentalists lauded US President Barack Obama when he raised the issue of global warming in his second inaugural address on 21 January….Obama kept it simple, short and vague,
discussing climate change as a moral imperative.”…

  • Nature zeros in on the US taxpayer:
(Nature): “But if Obama truly wants to leave his mark on the climate debate, he will need to break out of the mould and lay the foundation for something larger.”…

(Nature): “And the fact that US emissions are apparently dropping,
 
thanks to the economic crisis

and the ongoing shift from coal to gas for electricity generation as well as state and federal policies,
further plays into his hands.
But all will be for naught

unless the president can build on these trends
and somehow reset the climate discussion.”...

(Nature): “The foundation for this re-engagement could be a good old-fashioned strategic research and development (R&D) programme for clean energy.”…

(Nature): “The United States’ current US$4-billion energy-research portfolio
is not up to the task,

and almost

everybody recognizes as much.

In 2010, the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology recommended boosting the federal energy-innovation budget

to $16 billion.

The Brookings Institution, a Washington DC think tank,
 
has argued that even a small carbon tax
 
could provide up to $30 billion annually for energy research.”…
  •  Nature says the scientific “community” has weighed in on what US taxpayers should give, and that extra money will be needed.” Nature even names a specific company in Boston who could help with the “R&D:”
(Nature): “These ideas have been floating around in the scientific community for some time. Some extra money will be needed but organizations such as the Clean Air Task Force, based in Boston, Massachusetts, are looking at ways to better direct energy subsidies and use existing government spending to drive new markets for advanced technologies.”…  
(Nature): “The Obama administration might be able to put the United States on track to meet its Copenhagen commitment to reduce emissions to 17% below 2005 levels by 2020. It can seek immediate climate benefits by pushing international initiatives that reduce emissions of black carbon”…

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.”...

.
As we note below in a new article for Yale360, a funny thing happened: U.S. emissions started going down in 2005 and are  expected to decline further over the next decade.”
  • =============================
1/15/11, “Recession Special: Cleaner Air, NY Times, Matthew Wald

“What the government has not mandated, the economy is doing on its own: emissions of global warming gases in the United States are down.
According to the Energy Department, carbon dioxide emissions peaked in this country in 2005 and will not reach that level again until the early 2020s.”…

8/16/12, “AP IMPACT: CO2 emissions in US drop to 20-year low,” AP, Kevin Begos


In a surprising turnaround, the amount of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere in the U.S. has fallen dramatically to its lowest level in 20 years."...

News of US CO2 plunge has been described as:

===================================

Nature should know climate “action” was mandated by US government over 2 decades ago. CO2 terror wasn’t fixed in popular culture in 1990 but US politicians had big plans for it whether “action” was needed or not:

Global Warming ‘action’ was institutionalized in US government in 1990 by George Bush the 1st in the “U.S. Global Change Research Act of 1990.CO2 is mentioned near the end.
Devoting 13 federal agencies to ‘climate’ matters is hardly lagging in “action.”
Trillions have been taken from US taxpayers for climate endeavors via agency budget allocations, tax subsidies, diversion of US military to climate or green projects, countless federal regulations, vast sums shipped out in no strings foreign aid for ‘climate’ capacity building, etc.

Other countries’ CO2 hasn’t dropped despite hundreds of billions spent on cap and trade and extra taxes. This isn’t to say the US government hasn’t become business partners with the ‘climate’ industry.

Not so funny story: Communitarian chronicles:

Look at how easy it is to become a communitarianas long as it’s YOUR community rule that gets enforced.”…

————————————————————

Nature doesn’t mention that nothing the US does including committing mass suicide will “save” the planet because China will never change, has no desire to change, isn’t set up for enforcing change, and is making a fortune demonizing the US.

India is planning 455 new plants compared to 363 in China, which is seeing a slowdown in its coal investments after a vast building program in the past decade.”…
