Greg Ball comprehends the fundamental reality that with gas prices and oil imports rising dramatically with each passing year, our national security and prosperity requires that we chart a fresh course based upon renewable, cleaner energies.

Charting a course towards renewable energy sources is clearly the way ahead in the 21st century. However, many of these technologies are a decade or more away. In the meantime, Assemblyman Ball supported the gas tax moratorium, but believes that only through permanently abolishing this regressive tax can we bring gas prices down for good and drive economic growth. Greg Ball is also supporting measures to bring down the high cost of home heating oil, and supports grants for innovation to use alternative fuels for home heating purposes.

As a state and as a nation, Greg Ball is fighting to launch a concerted drive for energy independence, as other states and nations have done. Fighting to mobilize the scientific community, promote production of fuel efficient technologies, invest in more efficient factories and appliances, and expand the development of alternative energy sources such as wind, solar, and biofuels; Greg understands the concept that energy independence equals homeland security.
