On the recordJuly 31, 2001
Right. And I think that conservation and renewable energy sources play a big part in the President's overall energy plan. But if we are going to deal with things realistically, we have to understand that a large portion of our energy is consumed by oil, natural gas, and hopefully, a greater percentage of nuclear energy. Right now, the technology says that these are our main energy sources. And we can hedge those and help cut back on those by renewable energy sources and conservation, but it all has to work together. The gentleman has the graph, and a large part is oil and natural gas.
