Latest Energy Quotes

"We talked about nuclear power, well it has to be safe, environment, blah, blah, blah. "

2008 by John McCain on Energy from swamppolitics.com

"I have been consistently against Yucca Mountain. I held a hearing in the Environment Committee, the first that we’ve had in some time, looking at all the reasons why Yucca Mountain is not workable. The science does not support it. We do have to figure out what to do with nuclear waste."

2008 by Hillary Clinton on Energy from lasvegassun.com

"I will end the notion of Yucca Mountain because it has not been based on the sort of sound science that can assure the people in Nevada that they’re going to be safe. And that, I think, was a mistake."

2008 by Barack Obama on Energy from lasvegassun.com

"The reason I voted for it [the energy bill] was because it was the single largest investment in clean energy — solar, wind, biodiesel — that we had ever seen. If we are going to deal with our dependence on foreign oil, then we’re going to have to ramp up how we’re producing energy here in the United States."

2008 by Barack Obama on Energy from lasvegassun.com

"I have a comprehensive energy plan. It does not rely on nuclear power. We should not be siting any more coal-powered plants unless they can have the most modern, clean technology. And I want big demonstration projects to figure out how we would capture and sequester carbon. This is going to take a massive effort. This should be our Apollo moon shot."

2008 by Hillary Clinton on Energy from ontheissues.org

"That 2005 energy bill was big step backwards on the path to clean, renewable energy. That’s why I voted against it. That’s why I’m standing for the proposition — let’s take away the giveaways that were given to gas and oil, put them to work on solar and wind and geothermal and biofuels and all the rest that we need for a new energy future."

2008 by Hillary Clinton on Energy from lasvegassun.com

"How can you possibly talk about alternative energy sources without nuclear power? It can have a real impact on decreasing greenhouse gases."

2007 by John McCain on Nuclear Energy from seacoastonline.com

"We can do storage or reprocessing [about the issue of disposing of spent nuclear fuel rods]. Look at what the French and other industrialized countries are doing. It's not a matter of technology, but leadership, and the American people can be convinced this is one of the smart routes to take."

2007 by John McCain on Nuclear Energy from seacoastonline.com

"I happily support corn ethanol, all forms of ethanol, research for cellulosic ethanol, biodiesel."

2007 by Hillary Clinton on Energy from autobloggreen.com

"Until we can figure out what to do with the waste and overcome the political objections, we should not be putting a heavy emphasis on nuclear."

2007 by Hillary Clinton on Energy
