All are capable of passing alliances of circumstance with the other sideWe bet that London does that emerge fine wordsHowever the rural France fears to change pricesThe minority shareholder to win visibility I was loaded but the elevator was blocked2 of women executives against 15 in 2002Proximity coupled with easy turns into proxilitéFrance it becomes contractor by necessity not by opportunityThe ABF is also required in the backedup areasFor him several conditions are necessaryEnergy is one of the new policies, with health insurance and social programs, are the most out of the Bush years. In the relief and reconstruction plan adopted by the Congress two weeks ago, the energy sector mobilizes 80 billion, or 10 of new expenses which will bring the budget deficit to 12 of GDP, figure of war.
Scientific research and pilot projects of renewable energies will benefit from considerable budgets: wind, solar, capture and storage of carbon, electric vehicle, biomass and plant fuel. The modernization of infrastructure, the thermal insulation of federal buildings, the savings in social housing, urban and long distance public transport at high speed will contribute to national job creation. An important place is reserved for electrical networks: renovation of the old lines, grant demonstrators of "smart grids", "supergrids" current continuous long-distance to collect and carry renewable energy from solar and wind of the West sites.
It remains to be done vote an arsenal of legislative and regulatory measures that the Executive must negotiate with Congress: a goal of doubling the share of renewables in the energy balance; a market for carbon emission rights ("cap and trade"); a system of federal grant for power lines. View of France, countries in the planning of State, the energy in the United States policy appears complex: the jurisdiction of regulation is primarily by States, corporations of any size are private, some municipal, cooperatives rural, Federal. Obama of a national policy of great ambition project will give rise to difficult debates between contrasting regional interests, with the powerful lobbies of oil and coal, concerned, that mobilize, power, constituting one of the most contrasting political divisions.
The choice of the leaders of the administration is responsible for meaning. Exiled scientists are returning in force to Washington: the Secretariat energy, a Nobel Prize in physics; the White House, an advisor to the science and a close energy-environment Coordinator of Al Gore. The ecological conscience of America, signatory to the Kyoto Protocol, felt its influence on the trade-offs. Californians of the Senate and the House are the key committees.
This radical plan relies on a very well-reasoned speech highlights climate change control; energy security seriously constrained by oil imports; job creation; social redistribution; the carbon tax (the tax revenues of the "cap and trade" are projected at 650 billion over the period 2012-2020). The ideology of the New Deal permeates the whole of the energy-climate plan: infrastructure dilapidated victims of deregulation and speculative finance; the call for scientists and engineers-builders by Wall Street; the "green stimulus" to rebuild the jobs and investment for America on the new directions of ecological growth. Roosevelt also chooses its politicomilitary markers in the major infrastructure work neglected by the financiers of the roaring twenties; in the memoirs remain engraved the Tennessee Valley and electricity for all. This is an another Democrat, Jimmy Carter, who gave the signal of the contemporary energy revolution: by interrupting the development of nuclear power plants. by diversifying the Commission of atomic energy become DOE on renewable sources; in establishing the independent electricity system.
Finally, the President intends to restore America's global leadership, seriously affected by the refusal to ratify Kyoto and negationist attitude towards the scientific reality of the greenhouse effect. He promised solemnly not arrive empty-handed in Copenhagen, where to draw the post-Kyoto, and bring the emerging large including China, the new obsession.
In General, these are the ideas of America that shape global policies. For once, it is Europe that inspires America: Obama 2009 plan is the decal of the positions adopted under the German and French presidencies 2007-2008. Europe, after having courageously supported the Kyoto process for ten years, will feel less lonely. It has transformed in advance technology the nuclear France, the Germany of the renewable natural weakness in fossil fuels : in the global technological competition, it will be also less alone...
