Eighty-year-old Dallas oil man T. Boone Pickens has just delivered an ambitious, Texas-sized energy plan to the whole of America, in which he claims that wind could supply 20 percent of the nation's power within 10 years.
The proposal went live today at www.pickensplan.com.
You may recall that the nation's own Department of Energy proposed that same target -- in double the time.
So what's the Pickens secret? First, generate enough wind power so that America no longer needs natural gas for its power needs. And then use that natural gas to power a full one-third of the US vehicle fleet.
Sierra Club’s Carl Pope has discussed the plan with T. Boone himself. Pope's take?
To put it plainly, T. Boone Pickens is out to save America.
