Several governments around the World are applied ¨green initiatives¨ to looking for a sustainable development for its countries and some of them have introduced an emissions trading schemes, (for example the Europeans countries) on the other hand its economies requires new tools to be competitive and build a healthy energy supply.

Across the Atlantic Ocean the developing countries from The Americas (like Colombia, Brasil and Mexico) are looking another kind of sustainable schemes, through projects called Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) offering to foreign companies to invest in its heavy industry and energy sector, to generate emission credits; these credits can be marketed and eventually counted against a developed country’s emission obligation

However, I think, we need to take care, because is not enough to have a good relation between a competitive economy and energy security with a climate change policy, because currently the World Economy have some problems, and on the other hand the ¨green initiatives¨ are expensive have a high costs.

For the next year we could wait to have oil prices around $100USD a barrel. The World Order, need a better dialogue between producers and consumers countries. ¿ What kind of leaders and policymakers, we have? So ¨almost¨, we need a new manner of meeting between IEA and OPEC.
