Everyone should focus immediately on using energy more wisely by installing programmable thermostats, better windows and doors, and efficient insulation and appliances. Third, we can invest in clean homegrown energy resources. South Carolina has great potential for offshore wind power, as well as the ability to put farmers to work growing energy for our future.”
