Clinton urges China to find alternative energy sources

“You will have to come to grips with significant challenges to your growth,” Clinton said at an Internet conference in this eastern resort city, warning that the energy consumption required to keep China’s economy growing at its recent rate of more than 9 per cent is “unsustainable.” “If we don’t do it, it will eventually impose severe restraints on economic growth and make future conflicts far more likely,” Clinton said. “It’s not clear to me that there will be enough oil to produce that growth according to traditional energy use patterns,” he said.
