  • Business Leaders Count the Cost of the US Senate's Failure to Act on Clean Energy and Climate Legislation
    { Monday, August 2nd }

    WASHINGTON, D.C. - American Business for Clean Energy, American Sustainable Business Council, Small Business Majority, We Can Lead and Women’s Business Development Center, representing over 5,000 businesses, are highlighting the costs of the US Senate’s failure to act on comprehensive clean energy legislation using a ticker that counts, in real time, the amount in which America is falling behind other countries in clean energy investments since the Senate abandoned climate legislation in July. The ticker also points to the jobs that would be created by clean energy and climate legislation. The groups are urging Senators to resume work on a bill. The ticker will appear in Politico and the Washington Post this week, and appear on the business groups’ and their supporters’ websites.

    { Friday, June 25th }

    Remember "climategate"? Someone hacked and distributed emails from climate scientists from the University of East Anglia.

  • Newspapers Retract "Climategate" Claims, but Damage Still Done
    { Friday, June 25th }

    A lie can get halfway around the world while the truth is still putting its boots on, as Mark Twain said (or “before the truth gets a chance to put its pants on,” in Winston Churchill’s version), and nowhere has that been more true than in "climategate."
