Competition is afoot and I guess that's good news for global warming activists. America - currently seen as the worlds second biggest producer of carbon dioxide - is setting out to trump Europe as a model green nation.
At a bipartisan conference on climate recently – which was sponsored by California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger - President Elect Barack Obama repeated his campaign pledge to reduce carbon emissions by 80% by 2050.
He also plans to invest $15 billion a year—despite the economic melt-down on energy-saving technologies.
So popular is Obama now with environmentalists they’ve forgiven him his planned armour-plated car, which gets less than 10 miles to the gallon.
