Hope for a clean energy agenda?


2010 Midterm Elections


Even though six and sixty-six seats were lost in the Senate and House of Representatives, respectively, President Obama still keeps his chin up. Confident that there is a way to pass clean energy bills even if its not the comprehensive, one-size-fits-all climate act...

"We’re probably going to have a series of more bite-sized pieces that have to do with renewable energy standards, that continue to build on the work we’ve done to improve fuel efficiency in cars, energy efficiency in buildings. I think there are going to be a whole bunch of Republicans who continue to be interested in how we can foster a clean-energy industry here, and how can we do a better job with traditional energy sources like nuclear and natural gas. It won’t be easy, but I think we can get something like that done." (ClimateProgress.org)

... it's good that atleast one of us can remain optimistic. Hrmph.
