While McCain says "wait for the offshore oil in 2030," Obama suggests taking action NOW:
Obama's comprehensive New Energy for America plan will:
--Provide short-term relief to American families facing pain at the pump
--Help create five million new jobs by strategically investing $150 billion over the next ten years to catalyze private efforts to build a clean energy future.
--Within 10 years save more oil than we currently import from the Middle East and Venezuela combined.
--Put 1 million Plug-In Hybrid cars -- cars that can get up to 150 miles per gallon -- on the road by 2015, cars that we will work to make sure are built here in America.
--Ensure 10 percent of our electricity comes from renewable sources by 2012, and 25 percent by 2025.
--Implement an economy-wide cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent by 2050.
