Industry groups once opposed to mandatory greenhouse gas controls are now realizing that opposition is not an answer or option. 

"The American Chemistry Council (ACC) has dropped its explicit opposition to mandatory greenhouse gas controls and is now calling for any federal legislation to adhere to a series of “principles,” according the group’s President and CEO Jack Gerard. The policy maneuvering by ACC is part of a larger effort by major lobbying groups in Washington, responding to a request by powerful House Energy & Commerce Committee Chairman John Dingell (D-MI) for input on possible climate change legislation."
