Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Environmental Aspects of Current Hydrogen and Renewable Energy Programs: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Toxic Substances, Research and Development of the Committee on Environment and Public Works, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session, March 22, 1993
First want to thank my Senior Colleague, Senator Reid, for his leadership in organizing this hearing. 1 believe developing a progressive energy strategy for our nation is inherently related to our future economic and environmental health. It is also an important element of our national security. The United States currently spends about a $1 billion each week to import Oil that is polluting and non renewable. As we seek to reduce our trade deficit, investing in alternative domestic energy sources makes both good economic and environmental sense.
As a new administration develops policy to lead us into the lt century, the potential of renewable energy sources to become a major part of our energy mix, to reduce Pollution and greenhouse gasses, to create jobs through new energy technology, has never been so achievable.
