Stop the Energy Waste

America Wastes 70% of the Energy it Consumes
Sponsored by:
America Continues to Waste over 70% of the Energy it Consumes.
Our hedonist energy waste is culturally pervasive, and abominable !
(1) 100's of millions of lights burn unnecessary during the day and night.
(2) We over heat and over cool our homes, businesses, offices,
schools, churches, etc... (government buildings waste the most).
(3) Recycling is inadequate, over packaging is the norm,
our landfills are busier than ever. (Plastics are the ultimate polluter).
(4) Most Americans do not minimize their driving; road congestion is horrendous.
(5) America's incessant obsession with road construction is the ultimate contradiction.
The only way to eliminate over demand and energy waste is by using the
economic impact of taxing energy. Crude oil must be taxed at $200
per barrel(55 gal) and 'offset' by making Federal Income Tax begin at $60k.
Only with a substantial and tangible dollar reward/consequence, will
Americans care to conserve. Until the price of gas is $6 to $8 per gallon,
Americans will not reduce their over consumption and energy waste.
In the mean time, the USA continues its hedonist energy waste and gives away
its economic and political wealth to the Middle East via OPEC.
Know that Islamic dominated OPEC is glad to allow supply and demand market forces to drive energy prices to $8/gallon.
Ford and General Motors are almost bankrupt, yet continue to do business as usual.
The world cannot continue to support all the automakers. We are running out of petroleum !
Both must quickly transition to the lucrative business of building solar and wind 'energy producers'
for the world's 6.7 BILLION people reason$. Failure to innovate industry away from energy consumption to energy production
will cause 100,000,000 Americans unemployed, ruin our economy, and lead to anarchy.
Mass transit must become FREE, SAFE, CLEAN, and CONVENIENT, thereby rewarding those who reduce their driving.
China, India, and other 'developing countries' have just begun to compete for the world's remaining fossil fuel.
If global demand for energy is not dramatically reduced, World War is inevitable.
(Geopolitical unrest is directly related to global competition for energy and natural resources.)
Global warming continues to increases with our persistent waste and overuse of fossil fuels.
The incentives necessary to create sustainable and renewable energy supplies
can ONLY occur when we implement the economics of TAXING ENERGY.

We have a chance to develop a comfortable yet sustainable standard of living in this country and in the world. The world's resources will not sustain a growing number of middle class citizens copying the wasteful American standard. We can conserve and live comfortably, or continue to waste and live in a world of shortages and high prices

This is a worthy cause, please get your friends and family to sign! Another worthy cause :- The Venus Project is an Organisation that proposes a feasable plan of action for social change; one that works towards a peacful and sustainable global civilization. It outlines to strive toward where human rights are not only paper proclaimations but also a way of life. A world whe Mother Nature and Technology work together, not as two opposing forces. Where Resources and Science are choices over Profit and Power. Please look up the website http://www.thevenusproject.com/ and sign the petition. http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/The-future-that-Humanity-Deserves

we must all work very hard to preserve the environment or else future generations won't have a sustainable world.
