Reduce dependency on foreign oil, clean the environment. Whats not to like?
First, off the bat, global warming is a widely accepted scientific theory. The cause of of global warming is emissions from carbon based fuels. Don’t take our word for it, look it up. For starters, check out the Sierra Club’s website, which has a lot of information on the impact of America’s cars and light trucks on greenhouse emissions, and the website of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) admits that global warming is a very real and dangerous problem that the world must face and develop a solution in order to combat. What sane person could argue against developing clean energy sources and decreasing global demand for Middle Eastern oil? Only right wing nuts, oil companies, and their shills. The same people touting the recent 6-nation global-warming reduction pact between the US and 5 Asia-Pacific countries.
