We have to discover and produce cleaner, renewable sources of energy with less of the carbon pollution that threatens our climate. Another substitute for oil that holds tremendous promise is renewable biofuels—not just ethanol, but biofuels made from things like switchgrass, wood chips, and biomass. And we have to do it quickly.
