It said global warming is an urgent issue for the whole world. But many opponents of Mr. Obama's policies disagree. They say it would cost too much for the American economy to move away from using oil and other fossil fuels.
The president raised other issues of disagreement between the Republican and Democratic Parties. For example, he made it clear that now is the time to re-examine American immigration policies. The president predicted that some immigrants could one day become the country's technological leaders.各环保组织对总统针对气候变化采取措施的主张表示欢迎。塞拉俱乐部称其言论“令人振奋”。该环保组织表示，全球变暖是全世界亟待解决的重要问题。不过，许多奥巴马政策的反对者提出了异议：放弃使用石油和其他化石燃料将会让美国的经济付出巨大代价。
总统还提及了在共和党和民主党之间存在分歧的其它问题。例如，他声明现在正是重新审视美国移民政策的绝佳时机。他预测一些移民可能有一天会成为美国科技领域的领军人物。
