Title: Viewing Environmental Strategy Issues in a New Light URL(s): http://www20.cera.com/eprofile?u=35&;m=2758; *********************************************************************** STRATEGIC CHALLENGES GROW IN ENVIRONMENTAL ARENA The issues that are most prominent in the environmental arena are notable for their relatively long time horizons. Thus, although the uncertainty created by recent events might cause adjustments in environmental strategies it is less likely to result in fundamental shifts in direction. In the immediate future, however, the challenge will be in responding to a shifting landscape while maintaining long-term objectives. * Parties to the Kyoto Protocol are forging ahead with final negotiations, while the US focus is on when a domestic climate change policy might appear. * The European Union is moving toward development of a unified greenhouse gas emissions trading scheme, while individual European nations are developing or implementing their own (potentially incompatible) systems. * Continued technology maturation combined with heightened energy security concerns is solidifying the foundation of the renewable energy niche, bringing increased focus on remaining technical and political hurdles. **end** Follow above URL for complete CERA Watch.
