The Energy Problem

America is heading into an energy quagmire. Today's energy costs are unpredictable and pollution and climate change threaten our children's future. The security of our nation is at risk as Americans continue to buy fuel from turbulent regions. We need a long term energy solution that does not rely on carbon fuels but instead uses abundant available resources. Although in the short term we will need to use carbon based fuel, we need to transition into more sustainable energy sources like solar, wind and geothermal.

American needs an Energy policy

As a nation, our energy policy should invest in creating more cost effective and environmental friendly choices. Today the cost of solar and wind energy is dropping, while the cost of fossil fuels energy increasing by six percent per year. As we invest in clean energy it will be priced competitive with power made from fossil fuels.
