Obama presents his energy policy to Congress
"The only way this century will be a new American century is to finally face the cost of our dependence on oil."
"We know that the country that harnesses the power of clean, renewable energy will lead the 21 st century. So far, China has launched the biggest effort in history to make its economy energy efficient. "
"Thanks to our stimulus plan, we will double our production of renewable energy in the next three years."
We will soon be installing thousands of miles of power lines that will carry the new energy to towns and villages across the country. And we'll put Americans to work by making our homes and buildings more efficient, so we can save billions of dollars on our bills. "
"To support this innovation, we will invest $ 15 billion a year to develop technologies like wind and solar power, advanced biofuels, clean coal, more efficient cars and trucks built here in America."
“None of this can be done without cost, nor be it easy. But this is America. We don't do what's easy. We are doing what is necessary to move forward. "
