Erwin Jackson Clean Quotations

Emissions from Australia and United States are spiraling out of control. We need rapid deployment of clean energy such as wind and solar today. If the conference just throws research dollars to the coal industry to clean up their act in 15 to 20 years, we've missed an opportunity.

The conference will fail if it doesn't put in place (regulations) and strong financial incentives for industry to spend billions and billions of dollars on clean energy today. If it just throws research dollars to the coal industry to clean up their act in 15 to 20 years, we've missed an opportunity.

If Australia and the USA fail to commit to short-term and absolute pollution reductions through the use of currently available clean energy, a critical opportunity to address climate change will have been lost and the partnership will have failed.
