Reading this report on a new piece of legislation proposed by Rep. Mike Ross (D-Ark.), it strikes me that there’s far more room for compromise on environmental/energy issues than it might seem. Ross has proposed a massive investment in renewable and clean energy financed by the extraction of oil from ANWR and the Gulf of Mexico. The plan would also “create tax credits to build new nuclear power plants throughout the United States, with an aim of having 40 percent of the nation’s power come from nuclear sources.”
