Solar power is clean, renewable and cost effective, but it also needs time to develop. ↗

Do you know what my favorite renewable fuel is? An ecosystem for innovation. ↗

Almost every way we make electricity today, except for the emerging renewables and nuclear, puts out CO2. And so, what we're going to have to do at a global scale, is create a new system. And so, we need energy miracles. ↗

The second thing is, if you want to do something about global warming, you have to think much more long-term. There is something wrong with saying we should start using renewables now, while they are still incredibly expensive. ↗

Think on a 50-year scale, which is a much more natural time-scale for global warming. The US is right now spending about 200 million dollars annually on research into renewable energy. ↗

The more we focus on using renewable fuels, the less we are dependent upon foreign oil. ↗

It's important to understand that oil and renewables do different things. Wind and solar are for power generation, so they don't replace oil. About 70% of all oil produced is used for transportation fuel. Renewables are good projects, but they don't get us off of foreign oil. ↗

Even though I love solar and love wind, like most people do, I like the renewable sources, they alone are not going to get America energy independent. ↗

First, by 2020, North America will be energy independent by taking full advantage of our oil and coal and gas and nuclear and renewables. ↗
