Bush's Energy Bill at a Glance

Here are some main points from a Yahoo! News glance at the Bush administration's Energy Bill:
  • A doubling of ethanol production for gasoline to 5 billion gallons a year by 2012
  • Authority and financial help to build a $20 billion pipeline to bring natural gas from Alaska's North Slope.
  • Tax incentives aimed at improving energy efficiency of homes and some appliances and at encouraging use of renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and biodiesel.
It's great to see biodiesel mentioned in some national legislation.
