An Environmental Policy I Can Agree With

Rare as it is, I can actually agree with Jesse Taylor at Pandagon when he says,

Let’s make a deal - we’ll ”grow up” and consider the need to drill every bit of oil we can when you grow up and consider the need to be less dependent on oil.

I've argued for sometime that whatever energy policies we come up with must include oil exploration and a bigger push away from oil. Regardless of whether you are a peak oil believer or not, it makes sense to move away from an energy source that causes so many headaches, both literally (in the sense of air pollution) and figuratively (in the sense of political posturing).
