Informative Speaker T-Boone Pickens

Going to the special hearing of T-Boone Pickens made me much more aware to the effects we are causing to the planet Earth and also what we need to do in order to save it. First we must create millions of new jobs by building out the capacity to generate up to 22 percent of our electricity from wind; and adding to that with additional solar generation capacity. Next, we build a 21st century backbone electrical transmission grid. Then, providing incentives for homeowners and the owners of commercial buildings to upgrade their insulation and other energy saving options; and using America's natural gas to replace imported oil as a transportation fuel in addition to its other uses in power generation, chemicals, etc. All these examples are ways he plans to save our environment.
