2. S.193:  Energy Diplomacy and Security Act of 2007
   This bill gets the U.S. working together with other nations to improve energy security, expand access to renewable energy technologies and fight climate change.  It also corrects major flaws in  policy coordination structures,  which prevent the U.S. from effectively developing and implementing energy policy.  Faced with enormous energy challenges from fossil fuel dependence to climate change, improving policy coordination and building partnerships are key steps towards achieving a secure and sustainable future.
