This week, in a speech devoted to climate change, President Barack Obama underscored - again - the benefits of natural gas as a heavy duty truck transportation fuel. (View the speech here on C-SPAN.) It's cleaner than imported diesel. That has long been the cornerstone of the Pickens Plan.
National Journal recently hosted a conversation about the future of natural gas in America and the opportunity we have for reducing our dependence on OPEC oil through this cleaner burning, abundantly available American resource.
Watch this video for highlights from the panel featuring Andrew Littlefair, CEO and Chairman of Clean Energy Fuels, Senator Richard Burr (R-NC), Representative John Larson (D-CT), and former Governor Bill Graves, President and CEO of the American Trucking Association.
