I may be showing some talent for political strategy-making. From a January 12th post here:
Can you imagine if GWB made a national commitment to hybrid cars, the way JFK did to putting a man on the moon? It would capture the imagination and enthusiasm of the nation.
And from ABC News today:
Bush Speech to Outline Energy Alternatives
WASHINGTON Jan 30, 2006 — Trying to calm anxieties about soaring energy costs, President Bush is using his State of the Union address this week to focus on a package of energy of proposals aimed at bringing fuel-saving technologies out of the lab and into use.
In Bush's vision, drivers will stop at hydrogen stations and fill their fuel-cell cars with the pollution-free fuel. Or they would power their engines with ethanol made from trash or corn. More Americans would run their lights at home on solar power.
From Autopia:
The Department of Energy's latest estimate for the beginning of the fuel cell vehicle era is just 4 years away. According to the just released Roadmap on Manufacturing R&D for the Hydrogen Economy (PDF), the challenges in streamlining the production of fuel cell membranes and storing hydrogen can be met soon.
Here's the timeline:
2010 - Initial market penetration
2015 - Commercial availability
2025 - Realization of hydrogen economy
This would defund the terrorists and change the world.
