[GreenYes] energy supply

[dschere@bgnet.bgsu.edu]

In the U.S., 55% of our energy comes from coal.  While petroleum 
products are where we are vulnerable to foreign suppliers, and while I 
am actively involved in developing a photovoltaic system, the central 
questions we will face as a nation in the upcoming conflict are about 
the efficiency and reliability of our energy supply and about efficient 
energy sources for transportation.  Strategically, the easiest opening 
for the environmental community will be to argue for clean coal and 
alternative mobile energy storage systems whose efficiency reduces their 
environmental impact.
