President Bush devoted only 11 sentences to energy and the environment and he didn´t say anything new.

Everyone thought that George Bush will take more leadership on issues about energy and the environment, but he offered something like a wink and nod. Unfortunately he has never done any of policies in the last 7 years.

During this short section of the speech on energy and the environment, the U.S. president was interrupted seven times by applause. It is very sad but we could change anything in U.S. politics about energy and the environment.

He was talking about "clean energy technology," urged the increased use of “renewable power and emissions-free nuclear power,” and called for investment in "new technologies that can generate coal power while capturing carbon emissions." President Bush also talked creating a “new international clean technology fund, which will help developing nations like India and China make greater use of clean energy sources.”

Like always he can give a nice speech about energy and the environment, he has done nothing in the last seven years.

The big question was about Global Warming and Greenhouse Gases but he didn´t have any special answer for these issues.

The president called for “an international agreement that has the potential to slow, stop, and eventually reverse the growth of greenhouse gases.” Sounds good, right?

President Bush also said: “This agreement will be effective only if it includes commitments by every major economy and gives none a free ride. The United States is committed to strengthening our energy security and confronting global climate change. And the best way to meet these goals is for America to continue leading the way toward the development of cleaner and more energy-efficient technology.”

The next question was about where is U.S. leadership on Global Warming? Sadly president Bush´s idea about U.S. leadership on Global Warming is like his leadership in Iraq war and the war against the terror.

“The president had a golden opportunity last night to address the cap and trade bills pending in Congress and to signal his support for increased funding for clean energy technologies and energy-efficiency programs,” she said. “However, the 11 sentences he devoted to energy policy contained no such commitments, nor any major new policies.”
