Donald Boudreaux's observations ("Cool reception," Letters, Feb. 9) are very interesting. I think we got a good look at some of the possible answers to his questions from the new Congress. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi gave an impassioned speech to the committee that was hearing testimony about global warming from so-called expert scientists. She cited the need for sacrifice and adaptation to combat wasteful use of energy.
After she left that hearing, she proceeded to a press conference where she repeated her demands for a bigger airplane than her predecessor's. She said she was required to use the Air Force airplane for security reasons. Not true. That is just a suggestion. So much for honesty in the new Congress. Mrs. Pelosi further railed against the Air Force for leaking her demands fo...

EPA and NHTSA, on behalf of the Department of Transportation, are issuing this joint proposal to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve fuel economy for light-duty vehicles for model years 2017-2025. This proposal extends the National Program beyond the greenhouse gas and corporate average fuel economy standards set for model years 2012-2016. On May 21, 2010, President Obama issued a Presidential Memorandum requesting that NHTSA and EPA develop through notice and comment rulemaking a coordinated National Program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions of light-duty vehicles for model years 2017- 2025. This proposal, consistent with the President's request, responds to the country's critical need to address global climate change and to reduce oil consumption. NHTSA is proposing C...

Turbines on Maine's mountains are just plain wrong.
Roxbury voters are at a fork in the road. They can ignore the loophole-filled promises of free electricity and property tax savings and vote to keep the ridges free from gigantic arm-waving machines, or they can cave in to the lure of easy money and sell Roxbury's soul to the industrial wind "farmers."But let's not fool ourselves that the sacrifice of Roxbury's scenic vistas is justified to curb global warming, or to replace fossil fuel-burning power plants, or reduce dependence on foreign oil, because none of these things will happen. But don't take my word for it.
