As if there was any doubt....the State of the Union energy/climate policies are already up on the website of the White House. There is some potentially good stuff about renewable fuels and auto efficiency, but there are no mandatory caps on greenhouse gas emissions in there. There is no "cap and trade" policy. Once again--unless the White House put all of this stuff on the web as an elaborate deception--the breathless "scoops" from the British press about global warming are wrong.
