Comment:
Dear Mary: The Environmental Defense Fund has worked for 20 years to reduce global warming. Beginning with a joint exhibit with the American Museum of Natural History that opened in NY and later toured the country with a stop in San Diego, we have worked tirelessly for a cap and trade program. We pioneered a cap and trade program for acid rain that was signed into law by George Bush the first in 1990 in the amendments to the Clean Air Act. Its objective of reducing acid rain pollutants by 50% has been met. A similar cap and trade program is in effect in China, a result of EDF's effort. And, now the states are leading the country. EDF helped pass AB32 and support the effort to implement it. We are getting closer to success. As a founding trustee of EDF, I want to congratulate you on your efforts and wish you and EDF success in leading on this vitally important issue. Warmest regards, Art Cooley
