US President-elect Barack Obama formally announced his senior energy and environmental advisers Monday, selecting officials who have urged America to take a tougher regulatory line towards oil companies, electric utilities and other energy-intensive industries. Speaking at a briefing in Chicago, Obama named Carol Browner, a Washington attorney who ran the US Environmental Protection Agency under President Clinton in the 1990s, as his White House coordinator of energy and climate policy.
