Yet more evidence that the fraud known as "climate change" is ending. Clean Energy Works is closing down the store after the Congress decided to halt Cap and Tax legislation.
Seems to me if they really believed that what they were doing was to save the world they would stay in business, however, if all they wanted was our money then it makes sense to shut down because clearly, they won't be getting anymore!

Um cap and trade is not dead or Halted. They fully plan on ramming it through after the election. And if that does not work, Obama plans to include some form of it in the next budget.
It is definitely not dead
"BOGOTA, NJ – The non-partisan taxpayer group Americans for Prosperity is criticizing Governor Christie for using cap-and-trade funds to subsidize a project to build windmills off of New Jersey’s coast. The Offshore Wind Economic Development Act, signed into law by the governor last week, would “require that a percentage of electricity sold in the State be from offshore wind energy.”
The bill, S2036, authorizes the EDA to use funds generated by the RGGI Cap-and-Trade program, which are deposited into the “Global Warming Solutions Fund,” to finance the project.
Steve Lonegan, state director of Americans for Prosperity said, “It is stunning that the governor is continuing the same costly ‘green’ policies of his predecessor, Jon Corzine, all based on a global warming threat that has been debunked.”
“It is common knowledge that windmills are both unreliable and costly. In Massachusetts, which has a similar windmill project, ratepayers will be paying 18.7 cents per kilowatt hour and energy prices will be going up 3.5% a year,” said Lonegan. “This policy will destroy New Jersey’s ability to be competitive and drive out even more businesses”
“Worse yet, the governor is relying on the RGGI cap-and-trade scheme to pay for this boondoggle, rather than moving to repeal this legislation authored by Lisa Jackson and passed by Jon Corzine. While the American people have been fighting cap-and-trade tooth and nail at the federal level for over a year and a half, this Governor is promoting cap-and-trade in New Jersey,” said Lonegan."
