En una audiencia de confirmaci\u00f3n del Comit\u00e9 de Relaciones Exteriores del Senado ayer, el senador estadounidense Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) plante\u00f3 una serie de preguntas sobre el cambio clim\u00e1tico al candidato del presidente electo Donald J. Trump para secretario de Estado, el ex director ejecutivo de Exxon-Mobil, Rex. Tillerson.<\/p>\n

Merkley se\u00f1al\u00f3 que los bosques de Oreg\u00f3n se queman con m\u00e1s frecuencia debido a las infestaciones de escarabajos relacionadas con el clima y que las ostras luchan en el agua acidificada como resultado de la quema de combustibles f\u00f3siles por parte de los humanos.<\/p>\n

Presion\u00f3 al petrolero para que expresara su opini\u00f3n sobre si tales cambios, y las sequ\u00edas en lugares como Siria, contribuir\u00e1n a las amenazas econ\u00f3micas y de seguridad nacional.<\/p>\n

Vox<\/i> El escritor David Roberts dice que las respuestas de Tillerson demostraron que era un "tibio".<\/p>\n

\u201c\u00c9l reconoce que las emisiones de carbono tienen un efecto de calentamiento, pero dice que no podemos predecir lo que suceder\u00e1, no podemos vivir sin combustibles f\u00f3siles y podemos adaptarnos a cualquier cambio clim\u00e1tico que ocurra\u201d, escribe Roberts.<\/p>\n

Esta ma\u00f1ana, Merkley anunci\u00f3 su oposici\u00f3n a la nominaci\u00f3n de Tillerson.<\/p>\n

"Se\u00f1or. Tillerson dijo que la 'claridad moral' es clave para la pol\u00edtica exterior de Estados Unidos y estoy de acuerdo\u201d, dijo Merkley en un comunicado. \u201cPero durante el tiempo que el Sr. Tillerson ocup\u00f3 la alta gerencia de ExxonMobil, la compa\u00f1\u00eda se involucr\u00f3 en un patr\u00f3n de actividades que socava cualquier afirmaci\u00f3n que pueda hacer sobre la claridad moral\u201d.<\/p>\n

As\u00ed es c\u00f3mo Roberts describe el intercambio entre Merkley y Tillerson (la historia incluye un breve video C-Span de Merkley interrogando a Tillerson). <\/a><\/p>\n

          \u201cNadie se hace ilusiones de que la administraci\u00f3n de Trump va a liderar el cambio clim\u00e1tico. Pero Tillerson vino armado con el tipo de clich\u00e9s tranquilizadores y que suenan razonables que suelen ser suficientes para calmar los temores de los pol\u00edticos sobre este tema\u201d, escribe Roberts. \u201cPero Merkley realmente se preocupa por el cambio clim\u00e1tico. Y \u00e9l sabe algo al respecto. Estaba dispuesto a hacer lo que muy pocos pol\u00edticos estadounidenses (\u00a1o periodistas!) har\u00edan, que es empujar a una figura p\u00fablica a ir m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de los clich\u00e9s clim\u00e1ticos. Gracias a los pacientes esfuerzos de Merkley, qued\u00f3 claro que Tillerson es un partidario de los combustibles f\u00f3siles que no siente la necesidad de actuar con urgencia sobre el cambio clim\u00e1tico\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
