The Denver Post – “Set a standard for renewables”
Editorial
“While we don’t want to see renewable energy propped up over the long haul by government subsidies, we think the environmental disaster in the gulf needs to prompt some soul-searching into the country’s reliance on fossil fuels. Hopefully, the slate of answers will include a renewable-energy standard.”
The New York Times – “The Spill and Energy Bill”
Editorial
“Passing a comprehensive bill would be good for the economy, by creating new jobs; good for the environment, by reducing emissions; and good for national security, by reducing our dependence on unstable oil-producing countries. The president’s task now is to convert that rhetorical fervor into actual, filibuster-proof votes.”
