Going Green is the thing and its about time!
While the important issues, like energy, have been down played by diversionary tactics and the same ole politricks… some of us remain focused on the issues. I think the record high gas prices we endured this year has us all convinced that alternative energy is a must!
As we get closer to election day, we should all make sure we know where the presidential candidates stand on issues that impact our daily lives and the future of our planet!
The Obama-Biden comprehensive New Energy for America plan will:
»Provide short-term relief to American families facing pain at the pump
»Help create five million new jobs by strategically investing $150 billion over the next ten years to catalyze private efforts to build a clean energy future.
»Within 10 years save more oil than we currently import from the Middle East and Venezuela combined.
»Put 1 million Plug-In Hybrid cars — cars that can get up to 150 miles per gallon — on the road by 2015, cars that we will work to make sure are built here in America.
»Ensure 10 percent of our electricity comes from renewable sources by 2012, and 25 percent by 2025.
»Implement an economy-wide cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent by 2050. (more»)
This is a really important topic that not many people want to discuss, we should get more involved in renewable energy topics because that’s going to be part of our future.
Thanks for sharing.
thank you for your share!
A great post! Going green and becoming more energy efficient is a very popular discussion right now.

Does anyone recall what type of energy was used to discover America. It's time to welcome back our old friend windpower. The Winds of change are upon us!
This is the choice that we face in the months ahead. This is the challenge we must meet. This is the opportunity we must seize – and this may be our last chance to seize it.
