Energy a concern at UK Aussi forum

The leaders of Australia and Britain joined forces on Monday to warn that the growing energy needs of emerging economic giants India and China represented a key strategic challenge for the years to come.
“The emergence of China and India is making a difference, not only to the issue of globalisation but to the question of how we ensure that those countries can grow sustainable but also meet their energy needs in doing so,” British prime minister Tony Blair said in an address to the UK-Australian Leadership Forum in Canberra.
Blair said China was virtually building a new coal-fired power station every month to meet its soaring energy needs.
