Well, here are my favorite ways to get to oil independence while being good to the environment: * nuclear and lots of it * carbon sequestration of carbon-electricity plants * wind, solar, thermal, wave power * heavy incentives for all electric cars, banning gas burning cars within 20 years * heavy taxation of oil companies and gasoline, in the category of vice taxes, such as those on cigarettes and alcohol * repeal of all incentives to oil companies, including cheap leases of gov't land, incentives for off-shore drilling * make it legal to drill in ANWR, but charge a boatload for the leases and pass a law that requires them to leave the area pristine as part of their operation * normalize trade with Cuba...if we allow trade with Hugo Chavez, why not Cuba? make it legal to contract to drill off-shore Cuba
