POTUS and the Environment....

I wanted to make a quick post today because of an interesting article in Rolling Stone (Link to story here) about President Obama's efforts to address climate change. In addition to the interesting details on how he plans to address climate change through his executive authority via the EPA, the politics of last week's Keystone XL pipeline delay (my previous post) are also here.

All of it is part of a broader strategy on climate change by the administration, part of which was outlined in February's State of the Union Address. I wrote about that in my post from February 2 (linked here). It remains relevant and mirrors much of what Jeff Goodell says in his Rolling Stone piece, including how Obama's domestic strategy fits into global climate change talks scheduled for 2015. My scribbles didn't make it to Rolling Stone, but it's always nice to read something that mirrors some of your own analysis.
