Virtually all reputable research supports the conclusion that global warming is a growing crisis caused, at least in part, by the burning of fossil fuels. Would you propose mechanisms to control and reduce carbon emissions through a carbon tax, a "cap and trade: system, or some other regulatory program? Would you favor a moratorium on coal-fired power plants that do not capture and sequester CO2? Should a U.S. program to limit CO2 emissions depend on what other countries do?
