Stephen L. Kass, a partner at Carter Ledyard & Milburn and an adjunct professor of International Environmental Law at Brooklyn Law School, writes that the recently introduced climate change bill would, if enacted in its current form, represent a significant advance by the United States in beginning to confront climate change by limiting emissions from carbon dioxide, methane, hydrofluorocarbons and other greenhouse gases. Nevertheless the bill falls far short of the concrete commitments necessary if the United States, and the world generally, are to have any chance for meaningful progress. While the perfect must not become the enemy of the good in congressional legislation, H.R. 2454 must be only the first step in a sustained series of U.S. initiatives to spare the Earth's atmosphere, as well as its oceans, forests and freshwater resources, from the accelerating effects of climate change and to help hundreds of millions of the world's poorest people adapt to the consequences of past, present and future industrial development.
