What was that statistic Gore was repeating during the 2000 elections? Something along the lines of having all the cars in america be one percent more fuel efficient was the equivalent of 2 ANWRs.
The problem is SUVs being classified as light trucks, thus allowing them by law to be as fuel -IN-efficient as they want. Change the classification and raise the standard.
