Political Factoid

The 2012 GOP energy plan
announced by GOP presidential
candidate Mitt Romney focused
on:
  • Domestic, non-renewable fossil fuels
    like oil, gas and coal
     
  • Turning over control of federal lands
    to the individual states*
     
  • The most aggressive "drill-baby-drill"
    offshore program ever imagined
     
  • Largely abandoning renewable wind
    and solar energy**
 
* with developers benefiting from bidding wars
between states, e.g., for least regulation

 
** as exploitation of non-renewable resources
is more profitable with the GOP tax code
