Follow on Google News | Financial Soultions: Obama aide says climate bill is progressing.With global pressure, the White House says the Senate is making progress on climate change bill.
Carol Browner, the Presidents top consultant on climate and energy issues, said that White House officials were engaging Democratic and Republican senators in an aggressive drive to assist the bills progress. "There have been some bipartisan conversations that we find very encouraging," Browner stated that if the bill is not drafted into law in time for the U.N. talks on a global warming starting in early December in Copenhagen, the U.S. would still have a strong position on the issue at the conference. "Wherever we are in the process, we will be able to manage in Copenhagen," This may not be enough of a commitment to some developing nations like China and India who have repeatedly accused the U.S. of trying to worm its way out of its global responsibility on climate change, and particularly on funding aid for developing nations. Browner however did allay concerns from some critics that the president was not supportive of the role of nuclear energy in the bill. There has been a concerted push by some Republicans like John McCain for nuclear to have a more prominent position in the legislation. # # # Financial Soultions is a Boutique Investment Advisory Firm with very selective Corporate, Private and Institutional Clientèle who enjoy above average returns and service.
