We can, and must, shift to an economy in which 100% of our electricity is generated renewably.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Let's make sure we're doing what we can in our own backyard to gain our energy independence and to create American jobs with American energy.
As the economy grows, so will the demand for energy.
We ought to open up energy innovation across the board and - and remove the barriers to every form of energy.
Today, we're very dependent on cheap energy. We just take it for granted - all the things you have in the house, the way industry works.
We must develop energy independence; we must Make It In America.
If we are to meet the growing electricity demand in the United States without significantly increasing emissions of greenhouse gases, we must maintain a diverse supply of electricity, and nuclear power must be part of that mix.
We need to become energy independent or at least aspire to that.
In 80% of the world, energy will be bought where it is economic. You have to help the rest of the world get energy at a reasonable price.
Instead of hazarding our future on the dirty fuels of the past, let's invest in clean power that can drive this country forward. Let's cut energy waste, make our economy the world's most efficient, and give our workers a leg up in the global marketplace.
The demand for electricity to have a strong, growing economy is too great to be simply offset by more conservation.
