Sen Graham Calls for Pricing Carbon. By Brad Johnson, WonkRoom, November 4, 2009. "Saying that he has 'seen the effects of a warming planet,' Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called for the United States to 'lead the world rather than follow the world on carbon pollution'... Graham emphasized that his vision is to 'help this planet' that 'is in peril, create millions of new jobs for Americans that need them, and to become energy independent to make us safer,' because he believes that 'controlling carbon pollution is good business.' Although he hoped for participation from his fellow Republicans, he said, 'If you believe carbon pollution is not a problem, then you wouldn't want to work with me, because I do'... Our country doesn't have the infrastructure in place to build a green economy and never will until we price carbon."
