Washington DC<\/b> \u2013 Los senadores estadounidenses Jeff Merkley (D-OR) y Mark Kirk (R-IL) anunciaron hoy que el Comit\u00e9 de Asignaciones del Senado aprob\u00f3 una enmienda al proyecto de ley de Asignaciones para Operaciones Estatales y Extranjeras que financiar\u00eda el Fondo Verde para el Clima, una parte esencial del programa internacional. acuerdo clim\u00e1tico alcanzado en Par\u00eds el pasado oto\u00f1o. La enmienda fue copatrocinada por los senadores Tom Udall (D-NM), Susan Collins (R-ME), Dick Durbin (D-IL), Patrick Leahy (D-VT) y Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH).<\/p>\n
El Fondo Verde para el Clima es un fondo internacional creado para ayudar a las naciones de todo el mundo, particularmente a las naciones en desarrollo, a adaptarse al cambio clim\u00e1tico y hacer la transici\u00f3n a fuentes de energ\u00eda limpia. Este fondo es un componente esencial del marco que la comunidad internacional desarroll\u00f3 para trabajar juntos para enfrentar el cambio clim\u00e1tico. <\/p>\n
Una disposici\u00f3n del proyecto de ley de hoy habr\u00eda impedido que Estados Unidos contribuyera al Fondo Verde para el Clima. La enmienda de Merkley y Kirk anul\u00f3 esa disposici\u00f3n, dedic\u00f3 $500 millones al Fondo Verde para el Clima y a\u00f1adi\u00f3 texto que apoyaba el compromiso de Estados Unidos de contribuir $3 mil millones al Fondo durante varios a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n
\n"Ya estamos viendo los efectos devastadores del cambio clim\u00e1tico en todo Oreg\u00f3n, la naci\u00f3n y el mundo, y abordar el cambio clim\u00e1tico requiere cooperaci\u00f3n global", dijo Merkley. \u201cNo podemos esperar a que la pr\u00f3xima generaci\u00f3n encuentre una soluci\u00f3n al cambio clim\u00e1tico. Es nuestra obligaci\u00f3n moral trabajar con nuestros socios internacionales para reducir los gases de efecto invernadero y reducir la contaminaci\u00f3n por carbono. El Fondo Verde para el Clima es crucial para este esfuerzo\u201d.<\/p>\n
"El cambio clim\u00e1tico es real y seguir\u00e1 cobrando un precio grave en las econom\u00edas de todo el mundo", afirm\u00f3 Kirk. \u201cEl Fondo Verde para el Clima financia proyectos de energ\u00eda limpia en todo el mundo en desarrollo y coordina el consenso global sobre el cambio clim\u00e1tico\u201d.\u200e<\/p>\n
"Nuevo M\u00e9xico y el suroeste est\u00e1n en el centro de la atenci\u00f3n en lo que respecta a los impactos del cambio clim\u00e1tico, desde incendios forestales cada vez m\u00e1s graves hasta sequ\u00edas y aumento de temperaturas", dijo Udall. \u201cPero las causas y efectos del calentamiento global son mundiales. Esta es una crisis global que requiere una acci\u00f3n global, y la urgencia no puede ser m\u00e1s real. Hoy, el Comit\u00e9 de Asignaciones hizo lo correcto al reforzar el compromiso de Estados Unidos de trabajar con nuestros socios internacionales a trav\u00e9s del Fondo Verde para el Clima: reducir las emisiones en el extranjero es necesario para protegernos a todos aqu\u00ed en casa\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cEl senador Merkley merece un gran cr\u00e9dito por la enmienda exitosa para eliminar la prohibici\u00f3n de financiar el Fondo Verde para el Clima que fue incluida por el liderazgo republicano del Senado\u201d, dijo el senador Leahy. \u201cEl cambio clim\u00e1tico ya est\u00e1 causando inmensas dificultades a algunos de los pa\u00edses m\u00e1s pobres del mundo. Amenaza los medios de vida de un gran n\u00famero de personas y la estabilidad de regiones enteras. Ning\u00fan pa\u00eds, incluido el nuestro, es inmune. Abordar este desaf\u00edo requiere un esfuerzo global, y el Fondo Verde para el Clima es un catalizador para ayudar a hacerlo posible. Su \u00e9xito depende del apoyo de Estados Unidos y otros importantes productores de carbono\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
El proyecto de ley fue rechazado por el Comit\u00e9 de Asignaciones mediante votaci\u00f3n bipartidista. Los siguientes pasos ser\u00edan enviar el proyecto de ley al pleno del Senado para su votaci\u00f3n completa y, finalmente, fusionarlo con un proyecto de ley hom\u00f3logo de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes de Estados Unidos para que ambas c\u00e1maras lo aprueben y lo conviertan en ley.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
