How Do We Reduce Our Dependency on Foreign Oil?

T. Boone Pickens is a man with a plan. A Texas Billionaire, Oilman, Philanthropist and Supporter of Energy Independence for America who is heavily invested in Wind and Solar Energy, Natural Gas, and is the founder of the Pickens Plan (www.pickensplan.com).

The Pickens Plan is a grass roots organization with the goal of ending America’s dependence on foreign oil and supports the new Energy Plan currently in the works in Washington.  The Unites States imports $500 – 700 Billion each year and a very large percentage of that oil is from countries hostile to the United States of America.  This is a matter of our national security.

We can end our dependence on foreign oil by driving Hybrid and Plug-In vehicles, using Compressed Natural Gas (CNG & LNG) for commercial vehicles, heat our homes using Geo-Thermal, Solar and Wind energy and by supporting the new Energy Plan that will be sent to Congress for a vote next month. The Energy Plan, according to the White House, will reduce our dependence on foreign oil and help to create five million jobs by investing $150 billion over the next ten years to catalyze private efforts to build a clean energy future, put 1 million Plug-in hybrid cars (which the White House will work to make certain they are built in America) on the road by 2015 and weatherize a million homes annually, which in turn benefits the Northland with Mining, Shipping, Manufacturing, Construction and Support Services.

I support the Pickens Plan for energy independence and urge you to do the same. The time is now to break our dependency on foreign oil and develop our own sources of clean, renewable energy across America, right here in Duluth and throughout the Northland. On April 1st-3rd join the virtual march on Washington and call or email our Representatives, Senators and the Whitehouse and make it known that we are ready to become energy independent. Please join us at www.pickensplan.com. The time to act is NOW.
