The report's conclusions are in direct contrast to what can be distilled from Obama's energy agenda and the Waxman-Markey bill. This includes immediate measures undertaken to move the nation away from its coal reliance and to further solidify the EPA's mandate to regulate CO2 emissions under the Clean Air Act. A truly comprehensive energy plan for the 21st century would put a halt to the construction of new coal-fired plants and enforce stricter regulations on many of the pollutant emissions from electrical generation. However at present, the Administration and Congress remain in denial over the human cost in disease and death that will increase if they push forward their current energy policies. Their loyalties don't favor the improvement of Americans' health but have been sold to the coal terrorists intent on further reducing Americans' life expectancy.
