“You need to get something that will be politically supported on an ongoing basis. You don’t want somebody coming through three years from now and undoing something. If you want sustainable clean energy, you need sustainable political support for clean energy, and you need sustainable support among the American people.”

Pass climate bill this year? I guess its not a year too soon… Anyway, it is great to hear that there are also republicans out there that take the environment seriously. Because if you hear some of these guys talking, you would except the exact opposite actually
My bad, I was mistaken…i thought the guy was republican, my bad. I retract anything I said that could be deemed positive about the republicans. sorry…
