The House Energy and Commerce Committee passed on May 21 the American Clean Energy & Security Act, clearing the way for a bill to be delivered to the full House of Representatives prior to the August recess.
This post aggregates opinions on the current form of the bill, ranging from praise (Al Gore for the Alliance on Climate Protection) to strong criticism that the bill was significantly watered down (Greenpeace).
What are your thoughts on the Waxman-Markey bill? What shape and form will it ultimately need to take to be passed by the House, Senate and ultimately signed by Obama? Will this version have enough teeth to have a significant impact on clean energy, the environment and the economy?
