In terms of investment in innovation for cleaner energy, the plan calls for: Investment in advanced fossil energy projects. In addition, the President has directed his Administration to purchase cleaner alternatives to HFCs whenever feasible and transition over time to equipment that uses safer and more sustainable alternatives.

Meeting the goal of cutting US oil dependence depends largely on two things, Obama said: finding and producing more oil at home, and reducing dependence on oil with cleaner alternative fuels and greater efficiency. The Administration is pushing the oil industry to produce on leases already held.

Oil imports evaporated and the need to produce fuels from bituminous coal became even more important for the war effort.

However, a potential loophole that will enable ICE cars designed to run on carbon-neutral synthetic fuel , or e-fuels as their popularly known, could enable Ferrari to keep selling its V-8 and V-12 supercars. If the energy used doesn’t come from renewable sources, synthetic fuel is no cleaner than fossil fuels.

In a pre-response to that speech, having successfully advocated for plug-in hybrids like the forthcoming Chevy Volt, we propose that the President follow that speech up with a “realistic and conservative” roadmap to halve our oil use in 10 years. Oil is holding us all hostage, economically and physically. Finally, it’s time to begin.
