Some of us already understand that biomass to electricity is more efficient than cellulosic biofuel, but here?s new science to prove it. To my mind this does not diminish the immediate need for continued pursuit of advanced biofuels. But it does underscore the temporary role biofuels must play, on the path to evermore frugal use of energy. There was a great piece on National Public Radio recently that presented a very sophisticated argument on this subject: A new study published in Science Magazine shows that converting biomass to electricity is more efficient than turning it into ethanol: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=103926737 (NOTE: Ignore the headline: No one is proposing to burn ethanol to make electricity...)

President Barack Obama will announce Tuesday a breakthrough compromise to set tough standards of 35.5 miles per gallon by 2016 for new cars and trucks in return for California backing off its push for more stringent rules on automakers. The rules could radically reshape the U.S. automotive industry by forcing automakers to push higher levels of technology such as hybrid-electric drives into vehicles faster than once planned. The deal fulfills Obama?s campaign promise to push Detroit and other automakers toward more fuel-stingy vehicles, but will also sharply raise the industry's costs for meeting regulations. Under the pact, new federal rules would increase current mileage standards 5% annually to 39 m.p.g. for cars and 30 m.p.g. for light trucks in model year 2016, said a senior administration official. Current standards require new cars to average 27.5 m.p.g. and new trucks to get 23.1 m.p.g. Detroit and foreign automakers have long fought the California standards as too stringent, complicated and expensive, saying they could lead to a patchwork of state-level fuel economy standards. Automakers agreed to the plan to win a national standard giving them targets for the next eight years, rather than setting short-term goals. California, the nation?s largest emitter of greenhouse gases, will defer its rules through 2016. Dan Becker, director of the Safe Climate Campaign, called it ?the single biggest step? ever to curb global warming. The deal that Obama will unveil at the White House comes as Congress begins a push to double its commitment for technology to reach the goals. House Democrats on Monday proposed a doubling of federal loans meant to spur new efficient vehicles to $50 billion as part of the first overall carbon limits on the U.S. economy. That bill would grant credits under the ?cap-and-trade? program to U.S. automakers that experts estimate could be worth $15 billion to $20 billion. But that bill faces a tough road to becoming law this year, while the Obama administration will have to decide in less than a week whether to push General Motors Corp. into bankruptcy alongside Chrysler LLC. Both companies have requested several billion dollars in loans from the federal technology program to pay for new models such as the Chevrolet Volt. The administration will pitch the announcement as another successful bridging of differences among automakers, environmentalists and state officials. ?Tomorrow you?ll see people that normally are at odds with each other in agreement with each other,? said White House spokesman Robert Gibbs. Among those: the governors of automaking Michigan, Jennifer Granholm, and smog-suffering California, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Both will appear at the White House with Obama today as he unveils the new rules, along with executives from Detroit automakers. Officials said Obama?s plan will harmonize California?s greenhouse gas limits with regulations from the Department of Transportation and the Environmental Protection Agency. The new rules have the same target in 2016 ? a fleet average of 35.5 m.p.g. ? but allow for a slower ramp-up to that target than California law. The plan would allow California to set its own rules after 2016 if future presidents back down from the standards. The new rules will increase the costs of meeting fuel economy standards by $600 per vehicle to a total of $1,300 in 2016, a senior administration official said. The administration did not provide a total cost to the industry, but previous estimates for meeting 35 miles per gallon by 2020 had run more than $100 billion. David Friedman, Clean Vehicles Program research director for the Union of Concerned Scientists, said the Obama plan would keep the automakers from being caught off guard by a sudden spike in oil prices that boosts demand for small cars. ?This is a package that gives them the direction and certainty they need to make investments over the next decade,? Friedman said. Detroit?s automakers said the breakthrough would help them build and design more efficient vehicles. ?Harmonizing a variety of regulations will benefit consumers across America by getting cleaner, more efficient vehicles on the road quicker and more affordably,? said GM Chief Executive Fritz Henderson. Cars and light trucks account for 17% of total U.S. greenhouse gases, according to EPA data. Because vehicles emit carbon dioxide any time they burn fuel, the new rules amounted to a mileage standard, something domestic and foreign automakers argued only the federal government had the power to set. The deal will fulfill a campaign promise by Obama to allow California?s law limiting carbon-dioxide emissions from vehicles to go into effect. The Bush administration had blocked a federal waiver that would have allowed the rules to go forward in California and 13 other states. Detroit automakers and Michigan lawmakers had originally asked for $50 billion in loans last fall to spur new technologies such as plug-in hybrid vehicles, before Congress agreed to pay for $25 billion. The increase was proposed in an updated version of the ?cap-and-trade? bill that Reps. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., and Ed Markey, D-Mass., unveiled Monday.

This note is for you. I know others of you are skeptical. Here's your chance to hit the delete key. Citizens need to know that the current legislative proposals in Congress to fix climate change are weak and being severely weakened. Although some of the very large environmental groups in DC are still supporting the Waxman-Markey bill (aka, American Clean Energy and Security act - ACES), many other environmental groups are troubled with the flaws. At this point, I understand that the Cap & Trade title being considered in the House has been weakened by massive allocations of pollution rights to the polluters. In carving-up the right to pollute, the hope was that we would use the market to benefit people and the environment. By selling these CO2 pollution permits, we would raise revenues to help the less fortunate in society as we all grapple with rising energy costs. That was the idea. But in reality, it's not worked out so well. >From what I'm told, only about 15% of the pie will go to low and moderate income people. 36% goes to electric utilities and carmakers. At least 60% of the revenues derived from the bill will go to the very people who have got us into this mess. I note that great numbers of economists find this unacceptable: 600 of them agreed that giving credits away to polluters for free will only saddle consumers with higher prices while polluters walk away with windfall profits. http://www.1sky.org/pressroom/2009/03/600-economists-sign-on-to-support-auctions There is an argument that we should pass this weak Cap & Trade bill now, while we have the political will and opportunity. If the bill hadn't given away the whole pie, but merely had weak caps and timelines, I would agree. But once you give away the right to pollute, it becomes an entitlement, and we'll never be able to take it away. Every industry receiving these windfall funds will fight tooth and nail to keep them in future. For these reasons, I am deeply concerned that groups like EDF are promoting this as good policy. (See below.) And fundraising on it, to boot. Here's James Hansen's take on the situation: http://itsgettinghotinhere.org/2009/05/04/hansen-hopes-lawmakers-cap-and-trade-approach-to-climate-will-fail/ Watch carefully, folks. We Americans are contemplating the single largest giveaway in human history. It is literally the commoditization of the atmosphere: If we don't get it right, the implications are global.

To: john.bonitz at gmail.com Dear John, Only?5 days left to match your emergency donation. Please donate now and your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Even as we celebrate the President's historic proposals on fuel economy, the House Energy and Commerce Committee is finalizing work on landmark climate legislation. A vote could come at any time but the outcome is far from certain. If the Committee votes yes, it would set the stage for historic action in the full House and Senate. If the Committee votes no, our legislative team says it could be years before we get this close again. There are just too many other key priorities on the President's agenda. We need your help to seize this critical momentum and keep the pressure on. And if you donate before Memorial Day, your emergency donation to Operation: Climate Vote will be matched dollar-for-dollar. The opposition is doing everything they can to defeat this bill. A new report from the Center for Responsive Politics reveals that in the first three months of 2009, our opponents spent $80 million on direct lobbying alone. That figure doesn't include the tens of millions more spent on political contributions and paid advertising. And to add insult to injury among the lavishly paid hired guns working to defeat climate legislation are top Bush Administration environmental officials -- many of the same officials who worked to block action over the last 8 years. We're at a make-or-break moment. Your donation right now will go twice as far to help us ramp up our campaign efforts, buy more ad time, and do more on-the-ground field work. Here's what we plan to do with your emergency donation: Our Air Campaign -- We have placed hard-hitting truth-telling ads in key states and those all-important swing Congressional districts to help secure the votes to get a strong bill passed. With your donation, we can buy more ads to shore up swing votes on Committee. Our Ground Campaign -- Our grassroots organizing team is going door to door and community to community to raise public concern and mobilize voters to demand a strong bill in Washington. Your donation will help keep these efforts going. Our Cyber Campaign -- Through our Truth Squad blog and our Operation: Climate Vote hub page, we are using the power of the Internet to identify the false claims and scare tactics of the climate deniers, and to shine a spotlight on their cynical efforts to stop progress. Your support will give us the resources we need to intensify our online communications efforts. For only 5 more days, your emergency contribution will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Your donation will never make a bigger difference than it will today. One way or another, we are making history in 2009. Whether this becomes the year we changed America's direction or the one in which we lost one of our last great opportunities to act is up to us. Please join me.

John Bonitz Pittsboro, NC ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Brad Collins, ASES Date: Wed, May 20, 2009 at 6:37 PM Subject: Bar Set Too Low for House Energy Bill To: john.bonitz at gmail.com You may unsubscribe if you no longer wish to receive our emails. Dear ASES Supporter, HR2454?(this is a 900 page PDF file), the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 misses the mark for several reasons. Please help us? by encouraging Congress to strengthen this bill. Currently the United States Congress, under the leadership of Chairman Henry Waxman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and Chairman Edward Markey of the Energy and Environment Subcommittee, is working on the details of the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 (ACES). ACES is promoted as a comprehensive approach to America's energy policy. It charts a course towards a clean energy economy. The American Solar Energy Society (ASES) commends the committees' work. Unfortunately, the bill as rewritten misses the mark. In compromising with competing interests and industries, the committees have lowered their carbon-emission targets. They've responded to interests that don't appreciate the crisis nature of climate change. At this point, the partial solutions proposed will not sufficiently mitigate atmospheric carbon nor establish significant drivers for the clean energy economy. The bill coming out of committee is too weak and has structural defects that require it be revisited. ASES Policy Recommendations The ASES Policy Committee spent months working through a series of recommendations for the 111th Congress.?(www.ases.org/policy2009). We focused on: ??Energy efficiency for buildings; ??Renewable energy for buildings; ??Renewable electricity production; ??Transportation efficiency; ??Smart grid and green transmission; ??Green economy and workforce development; ??Federal leadership; and ??Carbon. There are three areas where the American Solar Energy Society suggests the bar needs to be raised: 1.?In ACES, Waxman and Markey allocate 85% of the emission permits free, mostly to carbon intensive industries, rather than including them in an auction system.? This give-away provides windfall profits to the very polluters whom we want to rein in, and gives them a competitive advantage over companies that have already cleaned up their act. We want to encourage change, not provide an economic reward for old business practices. If only 15% of permits are auctioned, only 15% of the expected revenue is available to grow the green economy and aggressively develop low-carbon solutions to replace high-carbon sources. 2.?By 2020, ACES proposes to reduce CO2 17% below the 2005 level. ASES policy recommendations target a 30% reduction by 2020. The difference has real consequences for the climate. We need the more ambitious target. 3.?ACES proposes a 20% renewable energy standard (RES) by 2020 with provision of up to 5% coming from efficiency. ASES suggests that this is not ambitious enough. We call for 28% RES (with no efficiency offset) and a 3% solar set-aside by 2020. Cap-and-trade is meant to be a market-based system. To be effective, its targets must be set high enough to move the market. Time is of the essence. We must act now and we must act boldly. ACES, as now written, is not ambitious enough to move markets. Indeed, giving emissions allocations away for free simply delays the price signal, and thus the action of market forces, by some years - years we don't have. The American Solar Energy Society takes the position that all permits must be auctioned. They must be auctioned upstream, where carbon first enters the economy. That sends a direct price signals on carbon, and produces offsetting revenue to help consumers, businesses and local governments to choose sustainable energy strategies. Action The bar must be high to make a difference. We absolutely need to send the right market signal from day one. Progress toward a sustainable energy economy requires consistently ambitious action. The time for visionary leadership, using 21st century technologies, is now. If you agree with us, please let your member of Congress know how you feel. Simply call the Washington switchboard at (202) 225-3121 and ask to speak with your Representative or click here for the online directory. Thank you for adding your voice to this important legislation. Your call makes a difference. And together, we're speeding the transition to a sustainable energy economy.
