| Remarks by Czech President Václav Klaus on Cap-and-Trade William Yeatman Yesterday the Washington Times hosted a briefing, “Advancing the Global Debate over Climate Change Policy,” at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C. The event featured four panels, one each for lobbyists, members of think tanks, Members of Congress, and foreign policy experts. This last panel included Czech President Václav Klaus, and his excellent remarks are below: Václav Klaus, Washington Briefing: Advancing the Global Debate over Climate Change Policy, November 4, 2009. “Many thanks for the invitation and for the courage to organize such an important gathering in the moment when political correctness tells you not to do it. We are meeting one month before the Climate Change Copenhagen Summit and several weeks before the U.S. Senate hearing regarding the cap-and-trade scheme. For these reasons, today’s meeting can’t be an academic conference, even though the topic still needs academic discussion. There is no consensus - neither in science, nor in economic analysis or politics.
