Alternate Energy Report, Koleda Childress Inc., dated December 16, 1991

Abstract

Policies, programs, and current status of alternate energy and global warming concerns in the United States are reported. The U.S. General Accounting Office has issued a report critical of many respects of the Department of Energy's Clean Coal Technology Program. The General Accounting Office points out that 15 of the 32 active projects are behind schedule, over budget, or have been scaled back due to equipment troubles. At a meeting of October 30 on the selection of projects for the round five of the Clean Coal Program, it was asserted that emphasis be placed on longer-term, high efficiency technologies but not on methods that offer near-term reduction of SOx and NOx. The fourth negotiating session of the United Nations-sponsored committee charged with drafting a framework climate convention is taking place in Geneva on December 9-20. With the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Brazil drawing closer, there are indications that a draft treaty should be written in many languages to reflect the concerns of nations opposed to mandating greenhouse gas emissions reductions.
