Automakers and utilities are fighting hard right now to roll back efforts to reduce global warming pollution.

But now the House and Senate must reconcile the differences between their energy bills. And while the Senate has passed a renewable standard three times in prior sessions, a few Senators this session ardently oppose these standards.

To help combat global warming, the new Energy Bill must include a 35-mile per gallon fuel economy standard AND a 15 percent renewable electricity standard. The Union of Concerned Scientists has shown that stronger fuel economy and renewable energy standards are technologically feasible, will save money for consumers, will create American jobs and can reduce global warming.
