摘要

Even as the health-care fight rages, another fraught issue is back in the headlines: What to do about climate change. While the debate includes the familiar partisan split, this particular topic also pits conservative against conservative, business against business, and country against country.rnAt the Group of 20 meeting in Pitts -burgh in late September, world leaders will be pressing the U.S. to act on the matter. Washington got only part way there when the House of Representatives passed a landmark bill putting caps on carbon emissions in June. The Senate has yet to take up the issue. And thanks to powerful opposition from business groups such as the National Association of Manufacturers, the American Petroleum Institute, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the chances of Senate action have dimmed, many experts believe. The opponents "clearly have the jump on us," acknowledges Betsy Moler, lobbyist for Chicago utility Exelon, which strongly supports the bill.
