Industries react against the pressure from Brazil and China

21/05/2009 - Industries react against the pressure from Brazil and China

... to facilitate access to clean energy technologies .

American industries decided to respond to the pressure that Brazil, China and India have done to facilitate access of clean energy technologies for developing countries in the midst of the negotiations of the new treaty to combat global warming at the UN.
The companies want to preserve intellectual property rights provided by patents that protect their technologies, to avoid that they are transferred to other countries. China has defended the use of compulsory licenses and breakage of patents in the area of clean energy. 
Concerned with the course of this discussion, the industries formed a coalition to persuade U.S. authorities to resist the pressure from emerging countries. Baptized as Idea, the group has the General Electric and Microsoft among its members. "Some countries are using the discussions on climate changes in a timely manner to promote its industrial policies," said yesterday the director of intellectual property of GE, Carl Horton.
