Al Gore Backs Carbon Tax
The Nobel laureate and former vice president advocates a tax on carbon dioxide emissions as the U.S. Senate continues to debate a carbon cap-and-trade system.
Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore said Wednesday that adopting a carbon tax is one of the best things governments can do to fight climate change.
"I know this sounds like a bigger idea than the political system can accommodate," Gore said during a Web cast discussion with Cisco Systems Chairman and CEO John Chambers. Gore said he is convinced that reducing taxes on businesses and employees -- and replacing the lost revenue with pollution taxes, principally a carbon tax -- is the way to go.

Union Membership & Energy
On October 17 of 1973 Iranian oil embargo started oil shortages and higher prices. A second oil crisis hit when the Iranian government was overthrown in 1979. Also in 1979 the Three Mile Island nuclear accident ended the anticipated nuclear boom.
In the next five years, 1980 to 1984 unions lost 23.28% of their members. Neither energy nor the unions would ever recover.
