美國能源部長博德曼12日在雪梨召開的國際會議中表示,美國總統布希將對國會提出要求,通過一項5200萬美元的預算案,以推動亞太地區乾淨能源計畫及其他能源範疇的國際合作。而抗議者直指本週的氣候議題對話為一場騙局,因為僅有大型石油及能源公司受邀參加這項會議。
Bush To Request $52 Million for Asia-Pacific Energy Partnership
President George W. Bush will request that Congress budget $52 million to promote clean energy technologies in the Asia-Pacific region and international cooperation in other energy areas, U.S. Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman said at an international meeting in Sydney on Thursday. Protestors are calling this week’s climate talks "a sham," saying that the only groups invited to participate are big oil and energy companies.
