石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价网站3月13日消息 BP首席执行官Bob Dudley本周在德克萨斯州的剑桥能源周（CERAWeek）上表示，石油行业应该更好地与绿色新政协议（Green New Deal）的支持者开展对话。 路透社援引Dudley的话说：“我们需要证明，我们共同的目标是实现低碳未来，并且我们正在为此采取行动。” 据一家环境声誉最差的大型石油公司的高管称，石油行业需要与绿色新政支持者合作，以保持社会的信任。 Dudley说：“我们的重点是必须开发一个对地球更清洁、更好、更友善的能源系统，但只有我们拥有社会和股东的信任，我们才能充分发挥我们的作用，这也意味着我们需要更多地与周五将走上街头的年轻人进行接触。” 来自70多个国家的学童周五将不上学，以抗议气候变化，要求政府和企业采取更多行动。 Dudley说：“这意味着改善我们与全球决策者的对话，包括那些支持绿色新政的决策者。” 国会议员Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez提出的绿色新政协议遭到共和党议员的严厉批评，但赢得了环保人士游说团的赞扬。批评人士注意到这项倡议的代价，一个右倾组织将其估计为93万亿美元，然而支持者们认为，从长远来看，不采取任何措施来对抗气候变化将花费更多。 鉴于绿色新政支持者的性质以及绿色新政将重点放在从美国的能源组合中淘汰其产品上，石油行业几乎不是其合作伙伴。然而，石油行业已经开始进军清洁能源领域，与绿色游说团体进行对话可能不是一个坏主意，即使是出于声誉管理的目的。 王磊 摘译自 今日油价 原文如下： BP Chief Urges Big Oil To Converse With Green New Dealers The oil industry would do well to engage the supporters of the Green New Deal in dialogue, BP’s chief executive Bob Dudley said at this week’s CERAWeek in Texas. “We need to demonstrate that we share the common goal of a low-carbon future and that we are in action toward it,” Dudley said as quoted by Reuters. According to the executive of one of the biggest oil companies with one of the worst environmental reputations, the oil industry needs to engage with Green New Deal proponents as a way of keeping the trust of society. “Our focus has to be on developing an energy system that is cleaner, better and kinder to the planet,” Dudley said. “But we can only fully play our part if we have the trust of society and the confidence of our shareholders. That means engaging more with the young people who will take to the streets on Friday.” School children from more than 70 countries will skip school on Friday to protest against climate change, demanding more action from governments and businesses. “It means improving the dialogue we have with policymakers around the world, including those behind the Green New Deal,” Dudley said. The Green New Deal proposed by Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was met with severe criticism by Republican lawmakers but won the praise of the environmentalist lobby. Critics note the price tag of the initiative, which a right-leaning organization estimated at US$93 trillion. However, supporters argue that not doing anything to combat climate change will cost a lot more in the long run. The oil industry is hardly a natural partner for Green New Dealers given its very nature and the focus of the GND on eliminating their products from the energy mix of the United States. Yet the oil industry has already begun making inroads into cleaner energy sources, and a dialogue with the green lobby might not be such a bad idea, even if it is for reputation management purposes.
