Over a period of twenty months, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy repeatedly concedes that the Agency's sweeping climate-regulation of America's fossil fuel-fired power plants will have no impact on the Earth's climate. McCarthy openly admits that the Clean Power Plan "is not about end of pipe controls." Instead, she says the rule is about "driving investment in renewables..., [and] advancing our ongoing clean energy revolution". McCarthy says, "That's what... reinventing a global economy looks like." EPA ADMINISTRATOR MCCARTHY: "The value of this rule is not measured [by its climate impact]. It is measured by showing strong domestic action..." -US House Science Committee -July 9, 2015 "[T]here is absolutely no reason to" measure the climate impact of the Clean Power Plan "because we know it will take a lot of efforts to actually make those reductions". -Senate Appropriations Committee -April 20, 2016 "We don't have to prove that any reduction [in greenhouse gas emissions] will actually make a precipitous difference" in global warming. -IHS Energy CERA Week -February 24, 2016 The "benefit" of the Clean Power Plan is "in showing sort of domestic leadership as well as garnering support around the country for the agreement we reached in Paris." -House Energy and Commerce Committee -March 22, 2016 "[The Clean Power Plan] is not about pollution control. [...] This is an investment strategy..." -Senate EPW Committee -July 23, 2014 "[The Clean Power Plan] is about advancing our ongoing clean energy revolution [...] That's what... reinventing a global economy looks like." -Council on Foreign Relations -March 11, 2015 "[The Clean Power Plan] is a fundamental way of relooking at where the United States is heading and how to maintain our competitive edge... That's what this is all about." -Council on Foreign Relations -March 11, 2015

See if you can find the clip of the Bill Maher interview from June 13, 2014 - it's one more quote to add to your files. I took it down word for word when it was first posted, but has been taken down since. All that remains is the war on coal comment that someone else posted. What I got from the clip while it was up: "This [GHG rule] is about leadership. This is about US being a leader on this issue and we believe and we already know it's going to leverage a much better opportunity for a global solution." - Gina McCarthy, June 13, 2014 "Real Time" interview with Bill Maher

iIt does appear that Al Gore and many of his constituents are fully intending to become the world's first Eco billionaires. Politics is so sloppy.
