But the proposals he made yesterday, which in 2001 could have been a starting point for negotiations with advocates of stronger action in Congress, are now too belated and too weak to be more than a historical footnote. All three remaining presidential candidates are committed to much more stringent, mandatory reductions in carbon dioxide.

The government needs to listen to the scientists. I specifically avoided discussing what climate change regulation should look like, since I am not a scientist.
