CAR Email 06.05.02 (a)
This document is an email from Dan Reifsnyder at the State Department to Phil Cooney at the White House Council on Environmental Quality. It forwards a link to an article from the Competitive Enterprise Institute announcing that the institute has filed a petition to prevent distribution of a flawed White House climate report. The full text of the forwarded article is included.
EPA DROE Email 6.19.03 (c)
The White House heavily edited a draft EPA report on the state of the environment to remove references to human-caused climate change and many studies concluding warming risks. The original report discussed risks from rising global temperatures but this was reduced to a few vague paragraphs after White House edits. EPA officials considered removing the climate section entirely to avoid appearing to selectively filter science. The administration defended the edits while some EPA officials protested the changes.
RCEC Email 6.23.03 (a)
The document is an email containing two news articles from The Atlanta Journal and Constitution about the EPA report on global warming. The first article criticizes the Bush administration for altering the EPA report to leave out scientific facts and conclusions about the human contribution to global warming and rising global temperatures. It notes key findings and references were deleted at the request of the White House. The second article provides an opposing view, arguing that natural factors, not human activity, were primarily responsible for past periods of warming including 800-1300 AD, and therefore the causes of current warming are still uncertain and debated among scientists.
EPA CAA Email 8.28.03 (f)
This document provides talking points about the EPA denying a petition to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles. The key points are:
1) EPA lacks authority under the Clean Air Act to regulate greenhouse gases for climate change purposes.
2) The only practical way to reduce motor vehicle emissions of CO2 is to regulate fuel economy, which is under the jurisdiction of DOT, not EPA.
3) Regulating greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles would be inappropriate at this time, as it would require the EPA to make judgments without sufficient scientific studies.
CAR Email 7.10.02 (f)
This document discusses a project involving the development of a new type of aircraft called the WHITNEY S201. It mentions components like the MmLC2 AMM engine and provides technical specifications like a maximum takeoff weight of 41,000 pounds. The document also notes this project is still in development with further testing planned.

CAR Email 9.5.02 (o)
This email discusses a Freedom of Information Act request from Greenpeace regarding communications from the Council on Environmental Quality concerning the 2002 Climate Action Report. The sender asks recipients to check with their FOIA officers about similar requests and have them coordinate with CEQ's deputy general counsel. Margot Anderson responds that she will look into it the next day.
Document 015432-017773
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.

CAR Email 7.12.02 (a)
Senior Bush administration officials told a Senate committee that while human activities are largely responsible for recent climate changes, mandating drastic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions is not the appropriate response for the United States. Instead, the administration aims to reduce the greenhouse gas intensity of the U.S. economy by 18% over the next 10 years. However, critics argue this intensity approach would still allow emissions to increase faster than recent trends. The administration report to the UN described U.S. climate policies and measures but stopped short of pledging to stabilize or reduce overall greenhouse gas concentrations as called for in the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.
CAR Email 6.5.02 (g)
The document summarizes the Bush Administration's changing position on climate change. It acknowledges that the Administration now accepts the science of climate change in a report to the UN, though it still advocates doing nothing substantive to address it. The document discusses alternative proposals from Senator Jeffords and the Progressive Policy Institute that would mandate emissions reductions from electric utilities in a more reasonable way. It argues the Administration will likely only follow, not lead, on dealing with the issue.
CAR Emails 6.28.02
The U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation has invited James L. Connaughton, Chairman of the Council on Environmental Quality, to testify at a hearing on July 11, 2002 regarding the U.S. Climate Action Report submitted to the United Nations. The Committee seeks testimony on U.S. climate change policies, activities under the U.S. Global Change Research Program, and the potential impacts of climate change. Witnesses are asked to limit oral testimony to 5 minutes and submit written testimony electronically 3 days prior and provide 60 copies the day before the hearing.

The document discusses the results of a study on the effects of exercise on memory and thinking abilities in older adults. The study found that regular exercise led to improvements in memory performance and helped reduce declines in thinking abilities that often occur with age. Exercising for just 30 minutes three times a week was enough to produce these cognitive benefits in adults aged 60-79.

The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on air pollution. The study found that lockdowns led to short-term reductions in nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter concentrations globally. However, the decreases in air pollution were temporary and not sufficient to significantly improve air quality or public health in the long run without systemic changes to reduce fossil fuel use and other polluting activities.
Broad on Wall - Episode 1
The document describes an investor conference run by Dr. S. A woman named Mindi wants to launch her own company organizing music concerts but is not on the agenda. Dr. S. calls Mindi and proposes they meet. He convinces her to make a song for him to present to his clients in exchange. When he plays the song for his staff and investors, they do not seem interested. However, Phil sees potential in Mindi's concerts and knows how to make her investible by having her help close deals and giving her a new look. When Phil takes Mindi to his investors with her wild parties, they listen and invest this time.

Almost Persuaded
A Sermon outline from Paul's experience in testifying before King Herod Agrippa II.
What are you holding back that’s preventing you from being an altogether Christian?
On the road to Damascus, Jesus said to Paul; why are you fighting against me? Do you see how hard it is to kick against the pricks? Why continue fighting? You see Paul had a personal encounter with Jesus and his life was changed forever. And once you’ve had that personal experience with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who sacrificed everything he had, including his own mortal life, how can you help but be persuaded?

The document is an email from Kameran L. Onley forwarding an op-ed written by Christine Todd Whitman, the former administrator of the EPA. In the op-ed, Whitman defends the EPA's new "Draft Report on the Environment", which analyzes environmental progress made over the past 30 years. She criticizes some environmental groups for attacking the report without considering its findings that air and water quality have improved under existing policies. Whitman argues a fact-based assessment is needed to further environmental goals in the future.

Pew Center on Global Climate Change- Issue Forum
This document discusses key issues for the upcoming climate change negotiations in The Hague. It makes the following main points:
1) There are complicated political and technical issues to resolve, including how to implement rules for the Kyoto Protocol and determine carbon credits for activities like carbon sequestration. How these issues are decided will impact future climate change efforts.
2) Developing long-term emissions reduction targets and plans beyond 2012 is important to address, along with how to involve developing countries in a meaningful way. Short-term considerations should not outweigh the goal of an effective global framework.
3) The U.S. has an opportunity to show leadership at the talks. However, arguments against climate action
