Obama Transition Releases Video on Climate Policy
Hot on the heels of his address by video feed to the Governors' Climate Summit, Obama's transition team has released a short video on how the team is managing climate change policy.
Featured in the video are Heather Zichal who was the main campaign staffer on the environmental policy desk and former EPA head, Carol Browner.
The video is light on actual policy, but I take it [along with yesterday's address] that climate change is near the top of the new administration's agenda. The video features Browner talking about the need for integration across the various federal agencies in dealing with both energy and climate. This is a positive orientation for tackling these policy issues--although realizing inter-agency coordination is often difficult in practice.
