Jonathan Lash is the lead off speaker for the event, and GE’s chair will speak next,live on C-Span. This means it ought to be reaired, and hopefully, archived so that others can see it in its entirety.

Time to e-mail your Senators and Reps, too. Really lay it on!!!
Tell folks this is about the plan to deal with greenhouse gases and global climate change. The US-CAP (U.S. – Climate Action Partnership) has released a report urging rapid legislative action. It includes “market-based” programs. There are a lot of CEO’s at the event, and Wal-Mart [?!] issued a press release supporting the plan.
More about the coalition here .
The US-CAP report released today is “A Call for Action”.
You’re right – I dashed this off while watching, so have changed the title.
I’ve tried to view C-Span’s saved press conference, but it comes up unavailable:
USCAP Discussion on Greenhouse Gases
The National Press Club hosts the U.S. Climate Action Partnership (USCAP), a group of corporate leaders and environmental advocates, to discuss the need for action on greenhouse gases.
A brief PDF press release and the full report (PDF) is at United States Climate Action Partnership.
The program repeats tonight on C-Span2 at 8:32 pm and 12:07 am.
