What with the high price of gasoline and the energy crisis, clearly
new technology is needed to save the planet. Luckily many smart people
are thinking about these problems and have developed new technology to
save the earth. One example is seen below:

This amazing new device can pump water to store energy for later
distribution.  Which brings up another new technology, namely water
power. Larger rivers can be blocked at various locations creating
artificial lakes which can be used for electric power generation.
Even better is a "hybrid" technology whereby the technology seen above
is combined with the water-lake technology so that the wind can
actually pump water into the lake creating even MORE energy!

People just don't understand the new technology out there that can
give us all the energy we need! I know my city is at the forefront of
energy independence because our mayor is trying to spend $200 million
in tax dollars for street cars for mass transit and the elimination of
inefficient private vehicles.

People have come up with the new technology for "energy independence".
We have the means to save the Earth.  All we need now is the will to
step forward into the 19th century!
