One would think that by now most people would have【B1】______that climate change represents a grave threat to the planet. One would also have expected from Congress a【B2】______ strategy for reducing the greenhouse gas emissions that lie【B3】______the problem.

The problem, when it comes to motivating politicians, is that the dangers from global warming— drought, famine, rising seas—【B5】______decades off. But the only way to prevent them is with【B6】______in the here and now: with smaller cars, bigger investments in new energy sources, higher electricity bills that will inevitably result once we put a price on carbon.

Those are all sound arguments. They have not been enough to fully【B8】______the public, or overcome the lobbying efforts of the fossil fuel industry.
One can only hope that these arguments turn the tide in the Senate. Mr. Kerry, Mr. Warner and like-minded military leaders must keep【B9】______their case, with help from the Pentagon and the White House.
