November 8, 2011
i
j... we tallied up the votes, reporting that Democrats had a good night in many key )
state elections yesterday, securing governor's mansions in Virginia and New Jersey )
and flipping the Washington state Senate, victories that could provide a boost to cap- i
land-trade programs to control greenhouse gases.
i
Speaking of states, a coalition of governors and other state officials plan to emphasize j
their progress on climate policies next week at the United Nations climate conference, j
arguing their presence is more important than ever after the Trump administration's )
rejection of the Paris climate accord.
)
jin personnel updates, veteran climate change and energy lawyers and advisers from j
both sides of the political aisle are joining forces to launch a new consulting firm, the :
Coefficient Group, which will focus on unique approaches to climate policy,
i
regulations and politics.
i
Out in court, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is asking a federal appeals court )
|to reject environmentalists' efforts to force it to conduct a National Environmental :
Policy Act (NEPA) review of the climate impacts of coal leasing on federal lands,
i
arguing that there is nothing in existing law that requires it to update a 1970s-era
:
|NEPA review.
|
And speaking of coal, the Clean Air Task Force is blasting what it says are the negative)
health impacts that would occur if federal energy regulators adopt a Trump
j
administration plan that would subsidize coal and nuclear electricity, warning it would :
keep high-emitting coal plants running longer and lead to much more air pollution. j
