Tom Friedman has an excellent op-ed piece in today's New York Times. The following is a short excerpt:

"The Bush team has been M.I.A. on energy since 9/11. Indeed, the utter indifference of the Bush team to developing a geo-green strategy - which would also strengthen the dollar, reduce our trade deficit, make America the world leader in combating climate change and stimulate U.S. companies to take the lead in producing the green technologies that the world will desperately need as China and India industrialize - is so irresponsible that it takes your breath away. This is especially true when you realize that the solutions to our problems are already here."

FWIW, Tom and his family own a Prius as well as a 400h.

The NYT's site requires registration. I'm already registered, so I didn't check to see if Danny's solution (listed below) works on their site.
