obama and chu

Steven Chu agrees with President Obamas sustainability plans for the future. They want to increase energy efficiency of our appliances and buildings. Have more efficient cars and trucks and a push to develop plug in hybrids. A continued commitment to nuclear power and a longterm plan for waste disposal. Increased commitment to research and development of new alternative energy technologies. Some specific examples that companys are offering for people going green are that companies like best buy will offer free delivery and new financing incentives on Energy Star appliances (clothes washers, dishwashers, refrigerators) and home depot will begin a national roll-out of a new Energy Star Windows Program, with advertising displays and labels that help consumers choose among energy efficient windows. There are many companies that are picking up on this advertising to promote the use of energy eficient appliences. and for hybrid's companies are giving free gas away as a promotion for hybrids
