"In terms of a reduction in total pollution, it is one of the most efficient programs out there," said Roland Hwang, vehicles policy director for the Natural Resources Defense Counsel. "We are fighting for every ton of pollution reduction we can get, and there aren't other sources out there short of closing down power plants."

The NRDC is a consortium of primarily oil and gas interests posing as an environmental group. They do everything they can to maintain energy shortages.

First of all, why can't oil & gas industries be interested in preserving the environment? Do you think they make money only by destroying natural resources and killing things? Is it only environmental extremists funded by the government and by the even wackier rich who can tell the truth?

Secondly, that's a crock that the oil industry tries to limit production to raise prices. Maybe you should try working a third or maybe half as much to see if your hourly pay goes up and you eventually end up making more money.
