Global Warming in a Time of
Economic Meltdown
California has been America's leader in addressing two
simultaneous and unprecedented global crises: The impending
exhaustion of affordable oil and gas; and the ominous rise of the
atmospheric, greenhouse gas carbon dioxide and other
greenhouse gases that cause global warming. The United States,
especially the federal government, has been by far the biggest
cause of these crises, denying until quite recently that they even
existed. (Think SUVs, lagging in alternative energies, etc.) The
point of no return is not far.

Will the Utilities Spending $27 Million Again Duck a Public Debate?
Californians for Solar and Clean Energy, sponsors of Prop. 7, today announced that

UC Santa Cruz. Proposition 7, the Solar and Clean Energy Act, requires all utilities to
provide more solar, wind, geothermal, biomass, tidal, and small hydroelectric energy.
Renewable energy standards are increased 2% per year, over seventeen years, so that
half of our electricity will come from cleaner and cheaper sources by 2025. This
important discussion will take place on the UCSC campus at the Stevenson Event
Center, Stevenson College, at 7:00 pm, Friday, October 17.

Vote yes on Proposition 7
Proposition 10 asks for a $5 billion bond, most of which would give
rebates to drivers when they buy more fuel-efficient vehicles, and the rest
of which would go to companies to research clean energy sources. As
stated in Tuesday's Register, in our view this initiative is not needed to
spur the alternative energy market and irresponsibly puts a burden on
taxpayers already supporting our deficit-laden state government.
