Summary of my views:
1. US does not have an energy crisis. Just need to waste less energy.
Contrary to many people's thinking, a bit of lifestyle change can be done
and actually can achieve a lot.

2. To solve the global warming issues, US need to reduce per capita
carbon emission. It can be done, just learn from EU.

3. I am not totally again nuclear power station. It can be used in certain
part of the world as a temporary solution. However I am against the
idea of touting it as THE solution to global warming and energy crisis.

4. Green energy is the way to go. Wind, solar, fuel cell, etc. We do need
to study more about the environmental impact. There is no single
universal solution to the problem. We need multiple technological,
social and political solutions.

5. Put more research money into power engineering in US. Power
Engineering is quite popular in other parts of the world but a declining
field in US. More education to the public about the power issue and
global warming issue should be done.
