The Mission

At a critical moment in history, we firmly believe:

  • Our dependence on oil and energy technologies of the past threatens our economy, our health and our national security.
  • The time is fast approaching when global warming pollution will cause catastrophic harm to humankind.
  • We must act now to protect creation for future generations and be responsible stewards of our nation's natural heritage.
  • We can keep America's economy prospering, increase jobs and reduce our trade deficit with 21st century energy solutions.

We therefore call for an immediate national commitment to Re-energize America.

We must use advanced technology to move beyond our reliance on polluting energy sources and unstable regions of the world.

American companies can again be leaders in creating new jobs and giving us more choices in transportation, housing, commerce and industry.

We must immediately unleash American ingenuity to stop global warming pollution and harness clean, safe, efficient energy right here at home.
