Franciscans Call for More Focus on Climate Change

Franciscans Call for More Focus on Climate Change by MSW.  MGB: Will cap and trade, a Republican idea, pass if the House goes Democrat, Obama is re-elected and the Dems keep the Senate and make some gains?   Will carbon stabilize before a real greenhouse is triggered or can we stop short once Greenland again becomes agriculturally productive?  I am still much more concerned about direct toxic pollution, which often impacts the poor, than I am about carbon - and I certainly favor a much more muscular approach involving simply confiscating offending sites and factories, cleaning them up and fining the owners for the cost of the repairs.
