We need to challenge ourselves to deal with our energy and envoronmental crisis.  One step in the right direction could be improving science and technology education.  Another huge step in the right direction would be to ensure that we have the appropriate national priorities.  We need to ensure that we are addressing our infrastructure needs appropriately, this includes encouraging increased use of renewable energy and public transportation through incentives, taxes, and credit training.  We also need to improve our current energy production methods, such as cleaning up coal, and potentially rethinking the use of nuclear power.  We have a high-tech advantage and we have a huge opportunity to create new manufacturing jobs in the environmental sector.  Finally, we need to rethink the way we live and where we live.  Sprawl is a huge issue that we need to deal with, creating more densy populated areas and reduced commute times, we can greatly reduce carbon emmissions, and increase the use of public transportation.
