Latta: Energy bill could destroy Ohio jobs http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1243288796
Global warming is billed as one of the most dire problems facing the Earth. But will the burden of fixing it fall unfairly upon residents and businesses in Ohio?
U.S. Rep. Bob Latta, R-Bowling Green, is trying to sound the alarm.
He warns a new bill making its way through the House will destroy jobs in Ohio and increase the costs of energy for almost everyone -- all in the name of reducing greenhouse gases.
"If you use coal, you're whacked," said Latta, whose district includes Huron County.
He notes in Ohio, unlike states such as California where "green" legislation is popular, everyone depends on electricity produced by coal plants.
