First some background on this addiction that America has to foreign oil.

It is an addiction that has been worsening for decades and threatening our national security, our environment, and our economy. According to T. Boone Pickens' website, in 1970 the U.S. imported 24% of our oil. Today, that figure has skyrocketed to 70% and with no end in sight. In addition, with oil at its current price, we will send over $700 billion to foreign countries this year alone. It is projected that this figure will reach $10 trillion over the next 10 years. With the United States consuming 24% of the World's oil demand for just 4% of the World's population, what is the solution?

Wind power. The states of the Great Plains are said to have the greatest potential for wind energy in the World. According to Pickens, the wind power that could be produced in North Dakota alone is enough to provide power for over 1/4 of the country. The development of wind power also makes an investment in rural America by providing numerous high skilled jobs without threatening local food production operations or economies.

Natural gas and bio-fuels. Cleaner, cheaper, and domestically available, natural gas and bio-fuels are essential in the process of kicking America's addiction to foreign oil.

These solutions and other essential information is all a part of the Pickens Plan, "a bridge to the future -- a blueprint to reduce foreign oil dependence by harnessing domestic energy alternatives, and buy us time to develop even greater new technologies."
