So my question for the thread: is there anyone here who believes that we should not pull out all the stops to become energy independent? If so, why not? Please address not just climate change arguments, but also those around national and economic security.

There is no more important world level, terror preventing, supreme importance national initiative than to become energy indipendent. If the money we spend on waging war in the ME (to secure oil supplies, and let's face it, we wouldn't give a shit who kills who if there was no oil there) were spent domestically to accelerate our migration, we'd be "half" way there already.
