Smart Energy: A Manhattan Project for Our Time
SMART ENERGY IS NOT AN ORGANIZATION. NO MEMBERSHIP DRIVES, NO FUNDRAISING. It is a cost-free tool for Americans of all ages who want to make our nation more healthy (less pollution), more wealthy (new jobs) and more wise (a liberated foreign policy).
The Resolution

Without energy there is no economic health or growth. But young Americans should never have to go to war for oil or natural gas.

September 11th underscored America's vulnerability to unstable foreign interests, and the need to free ourselves from a crippling bondage to foreign energy supplies.

We can do it by using less energy to heat and cool our buildings and to power our industries.


We can drive vehicles that use less (or no) gasoline.


We can generate electricity by the wind that blows, the sun that shines and the heat that comes from the deep places within our planet.

We can make our own fuels from renewable sources that can be used over and over again.

When we do all this, we will energize our economy, create new jobs and improve our trade balance.

We will have less pollution, better health, less global warming.

We will be free to practice diplomacy based on issues other than our need for foreign oil and gas.

We will win our freedom without damaging our wild and wonderful places, created in the mists of geologic time and impossible to replace.

We will demonstrate how clever technology, organized by determined people, can attain ethical goals.

We must begin. We owe it to our children and grandchildren, and to what Abraham Lincoln liked to call "The Family of Man."

This is a collaborative effort. When your organization signs up for SMART ENERGY we will post a link to your website, including a brief description of what your organization does.
