AMERICAN EXPERIMENT LUNCHEON FORUM

Please join us for an American Experiment Luncheon Forum at which economist Margo Thorning discusses the likely consequences of Minnesota's proposed Climate Mitigation Action Plan on employment, household income, and new investments in the state.

She also will talk about the likely economic and environmental effects of bills currently before Congress, including the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act. And Dr. Thorning will suggest cost-effective approaches to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in Minnesota, across the United States, and around the planet.

Whatever one thinks or fears about global warming -- how significant or hyped it might be, how dangerous or inconsequential it might be, or how manmade or naturally occurring its causes or non-causes might be -- it's increasingly difficult to find any sector of society not responding or adapting in some way. This is all the more reason to take account of economic by-products which, almost certainly, will grow in importance in shaping American lives and livelihoods.

A veteran of the Department of Energy, Department of Commerce, and the Federal Trade Commission, Dr. Margo Thorning is senior vice president and chief economist for the American Council for Capital Formation in Washington, DC.
