The U.S. cannot meet all of its energy demands within 10 years through carbon-free sources.
Global warming is not a problem primarily caused by humans; there is no conclusive evidence that the Earth is warming unnaturally. There is no consensus or absolute scientific proof, the only thing we have have is a bunch of arrogants elitists telling us it is a fact. It is really annoying how superior they act and also how big of hypocrites the big time fuel wasters such as Al Gore, Barbara Streisand, and Nancy Pelosi are. It is ok for them to waste energy on their mansions and fly on private jets, but they are telling everyone else to make sacrifices.
The U.S. government should not provide incentives for manufacturers to build fuel-efficient cars.
The U.S. should expand oil and gas drilling in the Gulf of Mexico.
The EPA does not effectively protect the environment. Please, any Government agency is going to be influenced by money, not the right thing to do.
The U.S. should not have signed the Kyoto Treaty. The treaty is a joke. When China and Russia want to come aboard then we can consider.
Expanded ethanol production will have a negative effect on the economy. Seems to be driving up food prices.
The U.S. should allow drilling in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). If most Alaskans are in favor, who are we to tell them no?
Congress should lift the ban on offshore oil drilling. if we dont drill, other countries will, and either their technology will cause more damage to the environment or they just dont care if they damage the environment.
Congress should not raise the gas tax. Do you really think the Oil Companies will absorb that cost themselves? They will just pass it on to us.
The benefits of recycling outweigh the costs. it is better to recycle than put it in a lanfill.
