Carbon fee bill introduced in Congress

A bipartisan carbon fee bill, The Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act (H.R. 7173), was introduced in both the House and Senate, aiming to advance renewable energy and reduce emissions. Supported by Citizens' Climate Lobby, it imposes a carbon fee, redistributes revenues, and seeks broad support.

Opinion: DFW business leaders to Congress: Act on climate!

North Texas business leaders urge Congress to implement a CO2 price, promoting economic opportunities and sustainability. The Citizens’ Climate Lobby promotes a market-based proposal with a national CO2 fee, revenue return to households, and border adjustment. Broad support exists, with bipartisan interest in Congress, encouraging local leaders to advocate for carbon pricing.

Local eco groups mark Pope Francis’ visit

Sept. 22, 2015

Today Pope Francis alights at a New York airbase and sets out on a six-day, three-city U.S. tour. He comes no closer to Dallas-Fort Worth than Philadelphia, but North Texans are enthusiastically commemorating the visit, and not only with open-air live webcasts of his Sunday afternoon Mass. For environmentalists and just plain folks with concerns for the health and safety of humans and other life on Earth amid pollution, resource depletion and climate change, his visit is momentous.
