Ese fue el mensaje de 10 miembros dem\u00f3cratas del Senado de Estados Unidos que asistieron a las conversaciones sobre el clima de Par\u00eds para asegurar a otros pa\u00edses que Washington har\u00eda su parte.<\/p>\n<p>De los 195 pa\u00edses que participan en las conversaciones, Estados Unidos parece ser un caso especial. No s\u00f3lo es la econom\u00eda m\u00e1s grande del mundo y el segundo mayor emisor de los gases de efecto invernadero que est\u00e1n calentando el planeta, sino que tambi\u00e9n es la \u00fanica gran potencia aqu\u00ed cuyo gobierno no est\u00e1 claro si habla con una sola voz.<\/p>\n<p>Los negociadores europeos y asi\u00e1ticos han expresado confusi\u00f3n \u2013si no indignaci\u00f3n\u2013 por las mismas preguntas que Washington se hace: \u00bfD\u00f3nde est\u00e1 la l\u00ednea que define los l\u00edmites de los poderes regulatorios del ejecutivo y la autoridad legislativa? La cuesti\u00f3n de las regulaciones medioambientales ha llegado a&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2015\/06\/30\/us\/supreme-court-blocks-obamas-limits-on-power-plants.html\">la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Los negociadores saben que el Congreso est\u00e1 gobernado por mayor\u00edas republicanas hostiles a la agenda del presidente Obama. Saben que cualquier acuerdo que se alcance en Par\u00eds no ser\u00e1 considerado como un tratado seg\u00fan la ley estadounidense, porque Obama no podr\u00eda asegurar la ratificaci\u00f3n del Senado de un tratado formal.<\/p>\n<p>Dicen que temen que un futuro Congreso o presidente pueda deshacer el plan de energ\u00eda limpia de Obama, sus regulaciones que limitan la contaminaci\u00f3n de las plantas de energ\u00eda y su promesa de trabajar con China, el mayor emisor de carbono del mundo, para frenar las emisiones.<\/p>\n<p>La delegaci\u00f3n dem\u00f3crata, encabezada por el senador Benjamin L. Cardin de Maryland, inst\u00f3 a los dem\u00e1s l\u00edderes a no preocuparse.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Estoy aqu\u00ed para decirles que el liderazgo de Estados Unidos y su pueblo apoyan plenamente todo el trabajo que se ha realizado aqu\u00ed&quot;, dijo Cardin en una reuni\u00f3n de alcaldes de todo el mundo, en el Ayuntamiento de Par\u00eds. &quot;Estados Unidos continuar\u00e1 con su liderazgo y cumplir\u00e1 sus compromisos&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>El senador Jeff Merkley de Oreg\u00f3n calific\u00f3 el calentamiento global como \u201cel desaf\u00edo moral de nuestra generaci\u00f3n, de nuestra civilizaci\u00f3n en este planeta\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>El senador Edward J. Markey de Massachusetts (\u201clos estados con mayor eficiencia energ\u00e9tica\u201d, alarde\u00f3) declar\u00f3: \u201cEl planeta est\u00e1 teniendo fiebre\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Los republicanos no tienen los votos para revocar las reglas de energ\u00eda limpia del presidente&quot;, y agreg\u00f3: &quot;Pueden tener un 100 por ciento de confianza en que contamos con el respaldo del presidente&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>La senadora Jeanne Shaheen de New Hampshire dijo que la ciudad de Peterborough (la inspiraci\u00f3n de la obra de Thornton Wilder &quot;Our Town&quot;, dijo) &quot;vot\u00f3 un\u00e1nimemente para construir el panel solar m\u00e1s grande del estado de New Hampshire&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>Una minor\u00eda vocal de estadounidenses no cree que el planeta se est\u00e9 calentando ni reconoce el calentamiento, pero no cree que las actividades humanas lo est\u00e9n causando. Pero el senador Al Franken de Minnesota dijo que la mayor\u00eda de los estadounidenses apoyan los objetivos de las conversaciones sobre el clima.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Ellos saben lo que est\u00e1 pasando&quot;, dijo. \u201cSaben que no s\u00f3lo tenemos que hacer algo, sino que al hacer lo que tenemos que hacer (pasar a las energ\u00edas renovables, pasar a una mayor eficiencia, pasar al almacenamiento, pasar a nuevas tecnolog\u00edas) crearemos empleos, que evitaremos el tipo de crisis, las crisis de refugiados, que estamos viendo en todo el mundo debido al cambio clim\u00e1tico\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Franken, ex miembro del elenco de \u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d, se desat\u00f3 de una manera que no suele hacerlo en Washington: \u201cTengo un nieto de dos a\u00f1os y medio\u201d, dijo al alcaldes. \u201cTengo un nieto en camino en enero. Dentro de cuarenta a\u00f1os, no quiero decirles que fui miembro del Senado de Estados Unidos y no quiero que me pregunten. &#039;Abuelo, \u00bfpor qu\u00e9 no hiciste nada?&#039; y &#039;Abuelo, \u00bfc\u00f3mo es que sigues vivo si tienes 104 a\u00f1os?&#039; &quot;<\/p>\n<p>Cardin concluy\u00f3 diciendo a los periodistas que los estadounidenses \u201capoyan abrumadoramente la COP 21\u201d \u2013como se conoce a la conferencia sobre el cambio clim\u00e1tico\u2013 \u201cquieren asegurarse de que la COP 21 tenga \u00e9xito, est\u00e1n a favor de los esfuerzos globales para reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero y abordar el cambio clim\u00e1tico. &quot;<\/p>\n<p>Se espera que los 10 senadores dem\u00f3cratas (los otros son Tom Udall de Nuevo M\u00e9xico, Chris Coons de Delaware, Sheldon Whitehouse de Rhode Island, Brian Schatz de Hawaii y Cory Booker de Nueva Jersey) hagan una presentaci\u00f3n en la conferencia en el suburbio parisino de Le Bourget el s\u00e1bado.<\/p>\n<p>No se espera que ninguno de los senadores republicanos asista a las conversaciones de Par\u00eds. El senador James M. Inhofe, un republicano de Oklahoma que ha calificado el calentamiento global como un enga\u00f1o, apareci\u00f3 inesperadamente en la \u00faltima gran ronda de conversaciones internacionales sobre el clima en Copenhague en 2009.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PARIS &mdash; It is going to be O.K.
