As a result, the United States could meet its reduction goals by promoting energy efficiency in fast-growing China, which burns vast amounts of coal. 44. Assistance will have to be provided, for example, for China to increase its energy efficiency. 45. Because of the energy efficiency of thermal doors, it has become common for houses built in the past few years not to have storm doors. 46. A more balanced and indeed less costly approach would embrace an aggressive program of energy efficiency aimed at producing more fuel-efficient cars and moderating demand for electric power. 47. A moratorium on appliance standards that require energy efficiency would be upheld. 48. Aging power stations, both coal- and nuclear-powered, could be shut completely if energy efficiency were improved. 49. Both Democratic and Republican camps have seized on energy efficiency and technology, in part because they believe it will have particular appeal to swing voters. 50. Bush backs policies that promote conservation and energy efficiency. |
