America has the know-how to move us away from our dependence on oil and toward a cleaner, more secure future. We're asking citizens to join us in calling on Congress to adopt a bold and sensible plan to move America toward a new energy future. To deliver on the promise of a new energy future, we urge you to support the following goals:* Reduce our dependence on oil by saving one-third of the oil we use today by 2025 (7 million barrels per day). * Harness clean, renewable, homegrown energy sources like wind, solar and farm-based bio-fuels for at least a quarter of all energy needs by 2025. * Save Energy with high performance homes, buildings and appliances so that by 2025 we use 10 percent less energy than we do today. * Invest in a New Energy Future. By committing $30 billion over the next 10 years to the New Energy for America Initiative, we could triple research and development funding for the energy-saving and renewable technologies we need to achieve these goals.
