Connie Hedegaard on World Energy Outlook 2009

10-11-2009

The International Energy Agency (IEA) today released World Energy Outlook 2009.

Danish Minister for Climate and Energy Connie Hedegaard has this comment:

"World Energy Outlook 2009 provides clear messages for the climate negotiations in Copenhagen. Limiting the temperature rise below 2 degrees celcius is both doable and affordable. And waiting will impose tremendous costs on our societies. With this report the IEA shows that the solution is within reach. Now it is up to politicians to show they have the will to seize it," says Connie Hedegaard.
