Oregon is on the verge of increasing the cost of electricity, increasing the cost of heating your home, increasing the cost of gasoline and destroying thousands of jobs over an imagined danger.

This is the recommendation  of Oregon's Global Warming Commission. The key element of this recommendation  is implementation of a system that will require carbon offsets or  credits for much of the fuel usage in Oregon.  Amazingly, the head of Oregon's Global Warming Commission is chairman of a company that sells carbon  offsets!

Oregon recently created the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute to  be headed by Philip W. Mote, the Washington state climatologist, who will  become a professor in the College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences at  Oregon State University, where the institute will be located.   Unfortunately, Mr. Mote has been implicated in fudging scientific data which falsely created the impression of dramatic  melting of Northwest Glaciers, while long term data shows little  change.

Oregon's goal of reducing CO2 emissions by 40% in just 12 years will cause  major disruptions if implemented the way Oregon's Global Warming Commission  advises. They ignore the one  move that would actually lower our cost of energy and meet the  CO2 goal at the same time: nuclear.

Instead they want to price energy so high that you are forced to  use 40% less heat in the winter and drive 40% less.
