This is a continuation of yesterday’s post, aimed to help you understand where Obama stands on energy adn environmental issues. His goal is to eliminate our foreign oil imports from the Middle East and Venezuela (a lofty one, to say the least). Here’s how he wants to do it:
- Increase Fuel Economy Standards.
- Get 1 Million Plug-In Hybrid Cars on the Road by 2015.
- Create a New $7,000 Tax Credit for Purchasing Advanced Vehicles.
- Establish a National Low Carbon Fuel Standard.
- A “Use it or Lose It” Approach to Existing Oil and Gas Leases.
- Promote the Responsible Domestic Production of Oil and Natural Gas.
