I propose

• Energy costs are changing because there is more and more demand for a limited resource--fossil fuels. Americans thrive on change, and this one is coming.
• The Federal government should use private enterprise and long-term contracts to move to renewable energy as its power source.
• Americans will need to adopt to changes in climate. Fortunately, we thrive on change.
• Environmental protection is a property rights issue. Litigation does not make sense as an environmental defense when there are vast numbers of small polluters whose cumulative effect is bad.
