Complete video at: http://fora.tv/2009/02/13/Secretary_of_State_Hillary_Clintons_Asia_Society_Address

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton discusses the Obama Administration’s approach to global environmental sustainability, and rejects the notion that environmentally-conscious policies must negatively impact American lifestyles and economic freedom. “Changing to compact fluorescent bulbs is not the kind of sacrifice that is going to undermind the quality of our life,” she jokes.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton delivers her first major foreign policy speech on the eve of her first visit to Asia as a member of the Cabinet.

In her first major foreign policy speech, made on the eve of a four-nation tour of Asia, with visits to Japan, South Korea, Indonesia and China, Secretary Clinton said that the U.S. will resume mid-level military-to-military discussions with China. The talks were suspended by Beijing last year after U.S. arms sales to Taiwan.

“It is in our interest to work harder to build on areas of common concern and shared opportunities,” said Clinton. - Asia Society

    Hillary still needs to explain all those meetings she had with Johnny Chung, Charlie Trie, John Huang and the Riady brothers ie. chinagate! Review Alamo-girl (dot)com / click ‘High Treason’ / click ‘Timeline’ - - Also, google Senator James Inhofe’s June 23, 1999 Senate Floor chinagate speech (by title) “Clinton National Security Scandal and Coverup” -the MSM has never mentioned one word on this. (because all 115 witnessess fled the country, there was never a treason trial for both Clintons)

    Hi, Agree and well said. Sadly it’s a disgrace and no wonder why America and the world is in such a mess with foul mouthed uneducated comments from those earlier becuase they can hide behind the internet veil of anonymity The world needs new leadership based on new sustainable and ‘good capital’ thinking!

  12. It is quite easy to …
    It is quite easy to ignore the environment if one has always had the good fortune of breathing fresh sweet air. Look a little further and consider the air in places like Bangkok and Beijing. Or the water in India. Conserving the environment is not always top on their lists as they strive towards economic success.
    Mrs Hillary Clinton is well regarded in Asia despite what her fellow countrymen think of her. B

You can’t let this idiot run unchecked, thank god she’s not president or a senator for that matter. Plus there is nothing wrong with the environment, over 650 scientists have said so, but you want to be believe Clinton who has no concept of honesty or integrity.

    FRIDAY FEB 20 2009

    Peek oil is as big a scam as global warming or Obama is for the people.

  21. I’m very glad to …
    I’m very glad to hear the US Secretary of State mention the importance of sustainability of environment. Having lived in the UK and Spain for sometime I was very impressed by the general attitude towards conserving the environment. Everyone seems to be very conscientious about recycling and the govt provides education and adequate resources for encouraging such behaviour. The micro creates the macro and I hope sustainability becomes a global byword soon.

  22. I don’t think it’s …
    I don’t think it’s only about education, there’s a darker side (not only in this case) that’s throwing the costs of this “change” at the population; like in the CO2 tax.

    And as I recall most of the population (not only american) is either broke or are wage slaves.

    Shes only talking about community change, that’s hypocrisy, she should also be talking about changes in the industries and corporations.

    I can say the same thing about Obama’s speeches; the worst thing is that people buy this stuff.
