Another reason to just say no to oil.

** Chavez calls for Russia alliance **

Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez calls for a strategic alliance with Russia to protect Venezuela from the US.

Greetings all,

Here is another reason to say just say no to the geopolitics of oil. We as a nation are above this piss-ant dictator, but guess what he has oil. It is time to kick our dependency on oil and become a clean energy nation.

We have the technology. We have plenty of sun and wind. We are the Saudi Arabia of the wind energy world. Enough energy from the sun hits the Earth every 40 minutes to power the entire Human civilization for one year. And yet we are doing what Humans have been doing for thousands of years, and that is fighting each other for limited resources.

Commit to making America run on 100% clean electricity. When we upgrade the national grid, generate 100% of our electricity from solar and wind sources, and power our cars on electricity we break our addiction to oil.

We can do this now and over the next ten years and pay approximately the same or less as our oil dependency will cost us. If we continue the path of oil dependency, we will still have to do this in the short term future, 50 to 100 years at most. If we wait to kick our addiction we will suffer greatly as a nation. Now is the time. We can make the investment in our future now, while creating jobs and long term cost savings. When we are free we can remove ourselves from the geo-politics of oil. We can be a leader in the world.
