What if you could power an entire city for $100? In a world of ever changing climates, isn't nice to know that one thing stays the same? Coal -- cheap, abundant, clean...errrr cheap. [mobile link is here]
Shift to Clean Energy to benefit the Environment, Human Health, Economy, and Energy Security.
Move beyond fossil fuels to clean, renewable energy - Create jobs, reduce pollution & sustain life.
1. GREEN JOBS: Start a Clean Energy Job Corps and create five million Green jobs in the U.S. The Corps will focus on energy efficiency and conservation measures, cutting global warming pollution 20% by 2015. Green jobs are needed to manufacture and implement clean energy technology. 2. CUT CARBON POLLUTION: Cut global warming pollution 25% by 2020, and at least 80% below the 1990 level by 2050, as indicated by climate scientists. Pass climate policies in support of Clean Energy. 3. NO NEW COAL: Moratorium on new coal-fired power plants. The feasibility and cost to capture and sequester CO2 are not known. Redirect fossil fuel investments to support Clean Energy sources like wind, solar, geothermal, hydro, and inedible biomass. These priorities are endorsed by the national movements, StepItUp2007 and 1Sky. |
