I went to the White House and asked people standing outside how they felt about alternative energy, what they believe should be done about it first, and how willing they were to see it happen.

2. White House Energy video
At 90 years old, I am heartened to see a cross-section of the American public emphasizing the need for all of us to conserve energy. Now we need leadership at all levels to empower this message - we remember a time when everyone in the US was behind the effort to conserve in order to fight World War ll. We have an equally serious fight on our hands today.
