GLOBAL CLIMATE DEBATE

Clean Skies' Executive Editor Margaret Ryan talks with Phil Sharp, president of Resources for the Future, a nonpartisan think tank, about how the U.S. uses oil and how that could change. Sharp served 10 terms in Congress as a Representative from Indiana, and subsequently became a faculty member of the John F. Kennedy School of Government and director of the Institute of Politics at Harvard University.

He serves on the President's Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future and the National Academy of Sciences Committee on America's Climate Choices. Resources for the Future has just issued an in-depth study of oil and environmental policies, "Toward a New National Energy Policy: Assessing the Options."
