Why does it seem like increasing energy efficiency is a partisan issue?

This, in my view, shouldn’t really be a Democrat or Republican issue. It’s a no brainer. You’re talking about more efficient energy standards, using alternative energy that is not dependant on foreign energy sources. So this is really a win win in all aspects and I think its something the United States needs to be invested in.

Safety is a concern, but I’ve been to France a number of times and looked at their commitment to nuclear . . . I (just) don’t think safety is the scary issue that many of us thought ten, twenty years ago.
