Center for Energy and Economic Development

Center for Energy and Economic Development (CEED)

Background

The Center for Energy and Economic Development (CEED) began in 1992 as a โ€œpartnership between the U.S. coal and rail industries.โ€ The president of CEED was Stephen L. Miller and the founding chairman of the board was John Snow, President and CEO of CSX Corporation.

CSX Corporation is a major transporter of coal to electricity plants in the U.S.1โ€œAbout CEED: History,โ€ CEEDnet.org. Archived February 5, 2003. Archive.is URL: https://archive.is/SpBIu 2โ€œCoal,โ€ CSX. Archived August 4, 2017. Archive.is URL: https://archive.is/qSnS9

CEED describes itself as โ€œa non-profit group dedicated to protecting the viability of coal-based electricity.โ€ It offered the following description on its website:3โ€œAbout CEED,โ€ CEEDnet.org.  Archived October 26, 2000. Archive.is URL: https://archive.is/Doj1t

โ€œWorking at the local, state, and regional levels, CEED communicates the truth about coalโ€”conducting research, dispelling falsehoods, and educating the public and government officials about coal-based electricity’s importance to our way of life.โ€

Snow has said that CEED was formed because, โ€œour nation’s most abundant energy resource was under attack, placing our energy security in jeopardy. Something more had to be done.โ€ According to an archive of the CEED website:4โ€œAbout CEED: History,โ€ CEEDnet.org. Archived February 5, 2003. Archive.is URL: https://archive.is/SpBIu

โ€œCEED‘s early battles focused on plant siting and opposing state environmental externality initiatives. With early wins under its belt and new issues on the horizon, CEED proved to be an effective advocate on behalf of coal-based electricity generation.โ€5โ€œAbout CEED,โ€ CEEDnet.org.  Archived October 26, 2000. Archive.is URL: https://archive.is/Doj1t

According to a 2006 press release, CEED joined with Americans for Balanced Energy Choices (ABEC) to form the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE), a group of โ€œmore than 40 leading U.S. companies from the electricity generation, transportation, coal production, energy technology, and equipment manufacturing industries.โ€6โ€œNew Multi-Industry Coalition Aligns to Advocate Energy Security and Environmental Stewardship,โ€ BusinessWire, April 17, 2008. Archive.is URL: https://archive.is/7Do4h The group would become โ€œThe driving force behind coalโ€™s rebranding effort.โ€7Ari Berman. โ€œThe Dirty on Clean Coal,โ€ The Nation, March 26, 2009. Archived August 1, 2017.

Oregon Petition

CEED actively marketed the Oregon Petition and Tobacco Scientist Frederick Seitz

CEED called to the thoroughly discredited Oregon Petition as the โ€œSeitz Petitionโ€ in reference to the originator of the petition, Dr. Fred Seitz. Prior to his work with conservative think tanks on climate change, Seitz was the prinicpal scientific advisor to the RJ Reynolds medical research program. But as far back as 1989, the tobacco industry believed that the elderly Seitz (who is now deceased) was โ€œnot sufficiently rational to offer advice.โ€

2000

According to an archive of CEED‘s website, one of its โ€œmajor areas of engagementโ€ has been the โ€œGlobal Climate Debateโ€:8โ€œAbout CEED: Mission,โ€ CEEDnet.org. Archived October 27, 2000. Archive.is URL: https://archive.is/CVlGo

โ€œGlobal Climate Debate. CEED is working to raise public awareness on this issue. CEED is opposed to the proposed U.N. Global Climate Treaty (the Kyoto Protocol), which will result in the loss of about 3.2 million American jobs and raise energy and consumer costs in all U.S. households for a treaty that scientists cannot even agree is necessary.โ€9โ€œAbout CEED: Mission,โ€ CEEDnet.org.

At the time, CEED also promoted a range of petitions under โ€œKyoto Scienceโ€ including the Leipzig Accord,10โ€œIssues: Kyoto Science,โ€ CEEDnet.org. Archived October 27, 2000.

2001โ€“2006

As of 2001, CEED was still promoting the message that there was a high degree of uncertainty around climate change. See archived screenshot:

According to DeSmog‘s assessment of archived web data, CEED continued to spread the message that the realities of climate change were in doubt amongst scientists and that it would not be prudent to introduce greenhouse gas emission reduction strategies until the end of 2006.

Up until 2006, the CEED website stated on climate change that:

โ€œWe’ve all heard of climate change or global warming. Many of us even have our own opinion about whether this is a serious problem or an exaggerated concern.
If predicting the weather were easy, we’d never be caught in the rain without an umbrella. Predicting weather conditions a day or two in advance is hard enough โ€ฆ so just imagine how hard it is to forecast what our climate will be 75 to 100 years in the future.โ€

And,

โ€œSome scientists believe that the one degree of warming that has taken place over the past 100 years is evidence that potential catastrophic climate change is an imminent threat. However, other equally-qualified experts are not so sure. They point to the fact that most of the warming that occurred in the 20th century happened prior to the 1920’s – when manmade emissions began a rapid increase.โ€

CEED archived webpage screenshot:

CEED claimed in the โ€œglobal climate changeโ€ section of their website that:

โ€œMore than a decade ago, global climate change emerged from the realm of science into the world of politics. Global climate change refers to the theory that certain emissions of โ€œgreenhouse gasesโ€ (including carbon dioxide or CO2) will, over time, contribute to a dangerous warming of the Earth’s climate. Unfortunately, when climate change entered the political arena, political agendas trumped scientific inquiry in addressing the issue.โ€

CEED produced two โ€œeducationalโ€ videos on climate change.

The second video was called โ€œA Flawed Treaty Impacts Americaโ€ that claimed to show how a โ€œflawed international negotiations process produced a flawed treatyโ€”the Kyoto Protocolโ€ and described how, โ€œif implemented, the Kyoto Protocol, or Global Climate Treaty, could negatively impact our economy and sovereignty.โ€28โ€œResources: CEED Videos,โ€ CEEDnet.org.

The report argued that the Kyoto Accord is โ€œjust plain wrong: wrong in its science, wrong in its approach, wrong to surrender, wrong for America.โ€ It also made a range of common arguments made by industry to oppose the regulation of greenhouse gasesโ€”for example, it claims:

  1. CO2 only makes up about 3% of the atmosphere and therefore cannot play a significant role in climate change.
  2. C02 is a basic building block of life, so how could it be considered a pollutant.
  3. Scientists predicted global โ€œcoolingโ€ before they predicted global โ€œwarming.โ€
  4. Climate change is nothing more than natural variations in temperature.
