Stevens and Obama
Senator Stevens makes some sense but then makes a major error. I agree with him that drilling in ANWAR makes sense if we can do it with minimum damage to the environment. I take issue with his plan to increase millage efficiency standars for "passenger cars" while ignoring SUVs, minivans, and light trucks. The latter is where most gasoline is used. New CAFE standards must be enacted for ALL light vehicles.
Senator Obama's support for coal liquefaction is legitimate as long as the tedhniques used sequester the CO2 emmisions and do not use large quantities of petroleum in the process. And this is doable. The latest methods being considered today do take these things into consideration. And coal is the U.S. main energy resource we have. We should utilize it as much as we can.On With new energy-focused bills, Stevens delights enviros and Obama disappoints posted 2 years, 10 months ago 14 Responses
