Brit envoy makes pitch for alternative energy
An article by Aaron Nathans in The Capital Times reports on a speech by the British ambassador to the United States:
Issues of supply, security and ecology demand the production of alternative sources of fuel, said the British ambassador to the U.S. in an address at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Sir David Manning was in town to hear from a panel of UW-Madison scientists at a private luncheon Friday before giving a public address on “energy security and climate security.”
“If we can find alternative sources of energy that are clean sources of energy, we reduce our dependence on unstable parts of the world,” Manning said. If companies do this, “they will be in the forefront of the new energy technology. They will make a lot of money for it.”
