Cost of Climate Control

E-mail to Congress:

EIN News says, "Firms Start to See Climate Change As Barrier to Profit. As the real-world impacts of climate change begin to materialize and regulation of greenhouse gases appears more likely, corporate America has begun to grapple with a challenging question: How do you quantify the risks associated with climate change? The answer depends on one's perspective. But companies are beginning to show increased willingness to disclose the extent to which they're contributing to global warming and what they're doing to keep it from harming their business.

Companies are traditionally subservient to government for several reasons. Government has the legal and police power to control any company action. Unless the government is completely transformed into socialism, government realizes it needs private industry for supply of goods and services. This minor hope of avoiding complete takeover is enough to generally justify private industry cooperation.
The Obama Administration has decided on climate control. Private industry sees no reasonable basis for opposition. It's only basic requirement is to maintain its existence, through generation of profit. It will accept any government regulation necessary to achieve that end. Private industry also knows that it can protect its profit margin by increasing consumer prices to cover climate control costs, even if such climate control costs are unnecessary. Private industry also recognizes that it can only do so with the agreement of the Obama Administration.
In it's effort to fawn on government, private industry is willing to contribute information ostensibly to show how t it has been contributing to global warming and its present efforts to reduce same. This is being done for political reasons, without any scientific basis.
As members of Congress, do not be deceived into thinking that there is a real basis for climate control based on industry support. Voters do not recognize many times what they are sacrificing in the long run, and industry is no different.
