1. We believe that the full environmental costs of power plants needs to be born
by the plant owner. For new technology, carbon dioxide must be fully considered in
this regard.
2. It is our position that carbon dioxide is now recognized as a pollutant,
or a special case of a substance that must be substantially limited as an emission
because of the global climate change problem now extant, so a complete plan
for accounting for carbon dioxide is necessary including provisions for collecting
the carbon dioxide, following it to its ultimate destination, and ensuring its
removal from impact on the environment at any future time.
