Climate Change Front and Center at World Economic Forum
Senator John McCain told the closing session of the World Economic Forum Sunday that he expects the US Congress to take action on climate change very soon, and predicted that the Bush administration will follow suit. "I admit that it is very late, and it may not be enough," said McCain, "but I think that for the first time you are going to see some action on this compelling issue."

The Sum of All Ears
Paul Krugman writes: "For those hoping for real action on global warming and energy policy, the State of the Union address was a downer. There had been hints and hopes that the speech would be a Nixon-goes-to-China moment, with President Bush turning conservationist. But it ended up being more of a Nixon-bombs-Cambodia moment. Too bad: the rumors were tantalizing."
