Obama Seeks New Era of Energy Exploration in the U.S.

Marking Earth Day with his energy plan pitch, President Obama called for a ‘new era of energy exploration on America” and argued that his proposal would help both the U.S. economy as well as the environment at the same time.

Obama said that America as a nation needs more domestic production of natural gas. Obama sees clean, reliable domestic gas as a short to mid-term solution to fuel independence and a bridge for America to an independent and sustainable energy era.

On this past Monday, Vice President Joe Biden marked Earth Day by announcing that $300 million in federal stimulus money will go to cities and towns to purchase more fuel efficient vehicles.
