What Are the Think Tanks Thinking? [1]
Submitted by Diane Farsetta [2] on
Conservative think tanks [3], including the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, the Center for Security Policy [4], the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies [5], the Heritage Foundation [6] and the Hudson Institute [7], are trying "to promote a shift away from oil, as the best guarantor of global security, prosperity and freedom." "Set America Free," the coalition's energy security plan, "calls for the U.S. to immediately introduce next-generation fuels and vehicles that use existing technologies," "recommends popularizing existing hybrid electric vehicles," and "suggests increasing use of fuel additives, electricity, alcohol fuels like ethanol and non-oil based diesel," according to Oil Daily.
