Treasury Secretary Nominee Actually Not Evil
By Jeff Fecke | May 30, 2006
Secretary-Designate Henry Paulson, Jr., the chair of Goldman Sachs, also has sane things to say about global warming:
The Kyoto Protocol is a key first step to help slow the onslaught of global warming and benefit conservation efforts…Until the United States passes its own limits on global warming emissions, innovative companies based here will lose out on opportunities to sell reduced emission credits to companies complying with the Kyoto Protocol overseas. Additionally, without enacting our own emission limits, U.S. companies will lose ground to their competitors in Europe, Canada, Japan, and other countries participating in the Protocol who are developing clean technologies.
Cheney must’ve been out to lunch when they tapped him.
