> - Former President Jimmy Carter In response to the oil crises of the 1970s, America developed a bipartisan energy policy that made us safer, greener, and far less dependent on foreign oil. It was so successful that American oil imports fell by fifty percent and greenhouse gas emissions dropped nine percent in just five years. How was this possible, and how can we do it again? A Declaration of Energy Independence--written by one of the country's top energy experts--outlines seven economically and politically viable paths to energy independence. It also answers the questions many Americans have been asking: How can we break the links between oil consumption, terrorism, and the war in Iraq? Will it wreck our economy if we deal with the tough issues of energy? Which new technologies can help get us out of our current energy predicaments? What kind of a president do we need to lead us to a better energy future? Should we be pessimistic or optimistic about our energy prospects? "This book and its message are long overdue." -Former President Jimmy Carter
