New York Times : Twenty-three senators from both parties met yesterday at the White House to talk about various bills being drafted that will tackle energy and climate. No agreement, or even compromise, was reached on what is perhaps the most contentious issue: Whether the US should impose a national energy tax. Democrats want an emissions tax to mitigate climate change. Republicans worry that any additional tax would imperil the economy’s recovery from recession.
