Moving Beyond Talk on Climate Change

One of the top issues this week at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, was climate change. But the business and political leaders gathered for the yearly event in the Swiss Alps were not the only ones talking about the subject.

President Bush, in his State of the Union message Tuesday, proposed rules to increase production of renewable fuels, like ethanol from corn. He also said new technologies are needed to deal with what he called "the serious challenge of climate change."

California recently passed rules to require industries to release less carbon dioxide and other gases blamed for trapping heat. Some companies believe it is just a question of time before the federal government could do the same. So they are positioning themselves to have a voice in the policy-making.

面对气候变化问题时讨论不如行动

本周,在瑞士德夫斯召开的全球经济研讨会上,一个重要的问题就是气候恶化。但是商政界的要员聚集到瑞士的阿尔卑斯山,在这个一年一度的会议上讨论这个问题已经不是第一次了。
总统布什,在他周二的国情咨文上,计划一项草案来增加可再生能源的生产。比如从玉米种提炼乙醇。他还提出需要新的基础来应对他提到的“气候恶化的挑战”。
加利福尼亚今日通过法案,要求工业企业减少二氧化碳等温室气体的排放量。一些公司认为两邦政府采取类似的行动只是时间问题,所以他们直接参与到了这个政策的制定当中。
对于国家来说,一种可能性是形成一种类似欧盟所拥有那样的交易圈。公司将被允许排放一定数量的温室气体。没有达到排污限额的企业可以把他们剩余的限额部分出售给其他污染更大的企业。
