Congress will not solve the climate problem with one piece of legislation.With 50 year targets, untested markets, and new technologies coming on line, climate change legislation will continue to be a focus of Congress and the Administration for the foreseeable future. One thing seems clear; the next Administration will likely be far more proactive in dealing with climate change than the current one.
