On Energy & Oil: Mandate more clean & renewable energy, for oil independence

America is too dependent on foreign sources of energy. We see a policy imperative for a renewable electricity standard (RES). An RES would require electric utilities to generate a minimum percentage of their electricity from clean, renewable resources-- wind, solar, geothermal, hydro and biomass. We oppose the so-called Clean Energy Standard (CES) or Diverse Energy Standard (DES) proposed by some that would dilute this incentive by including non-renewable sources of energy like nuclear and coal.
