Washington, Oct 23 (Prensa Latina) US President Barack Obama will promote his environmental plans at Massachussets Technological Institute ahead of a discussion in the Senate to reduce emissions.
Obama will defend the use of alternative energies before businessmen, traders, community leaders as well as students and scholars called at the Centre for Advanced Studies, the White House said in a statement Friday.
The president needs support from the Democrat votes to pass a bill that gradually limits emission of gases and promotes non-traditional energy sources.
