@Tom_Godell Thanks so much! Arrived home from a swim meet in Campbellsville to find this nice gift.
The press today is all about the narrrow vote margin for ACES. Wrong. Some Dems who voted against did so because the vote was secure.
@craigblanton The article is in inflation-adjusted dollars.
Joe Romm: ACES will "complete America’s transition to a clean energy economy, which was begun in the stimulus." http://climateprogress.org/2009...
ACES is "the most important energy and environmental legislation in the history of our country" - Ed Markey (via @heraldleader)
RT @nature_org: #ACES creates policy for protecting forests at scale needed to sig. reduce emissions from deforestation http://www.nature.org/pressro...
@chrischeatham Waiting for Minn Supremes, any day, but who knows what Coleman has in mind after that. Franken is critical for ACES.
@chrischeatham My guess is that this will accelerate Senate consideration rather than delay until next yr. Need to wait for Franken.
@chrischeatham It wasn't that close. The margin was greater than this morning's vote & allowed a few Ds to save face at home.
Call Chandler's office tomorrow - his voice mail box is full!
Kentuckians: Be sure to congratulate Ben Chandler for voting Aye on ACES. Very courageous vote for this state.
@alexismadrigal "Threat" is such a weakening modifier for what is obviously already upon us.
RT @alexismadrigal: NYT hedge hed: "House Approves Bill to Address Threat of Global Warming". Threat? What about impacts: http://www.globalchange.gov/compone...
@craigblanton I agree, and my colleagues and I are working on renewable energy for KY. We should talk soon.
RT @nature_org #ACES passes..signals 2 world that US is serious about controlling emissions & addressing climate change http://www.nature.org/initiat...
@craigblanton But in making forecasts, you have to inflation adjust.
@craigblanton I will wager you a bottle of Blanton's that in 10 years, energy bills adjusted for inflation will not increase.
RT @craigblanton: @tomkimmerer Tom, come on, I'm all for greening everything but this bill will double or triple mine and your electric bill
Congratulations to Rep. Waxman, who has worked on this issue (climate change and ACES) for more than a decade. He is a true hero.
