Two days ago, President Barack Obama made his first state of the union address. Of course, I was excited to hear him talk about his plans for helping our country “go green!”
The President talked about creating “clean energy jobs” (cool!) and passing a “comprehensive energy and climate bill” (very cool!) He then talked about the importance of “clean nuclear power plants,” “oil and gas development,” “advanced biofuels” and “clean coal technologies.”What is all that stuff? None of it sounds very green to me! Mr. Obama didn’t talk about solar, wind or geothermal power—the cleanest known energy technologies of today!
For the next few days, I will try to research the energy sources he did mention and provide information about each of them! First up—nuclear energy!
