Energy and Environmental Policy

The energy policy of the United States is determined by federal, state, and local entities in the United States.

Environmental Policy has become highly contentious and political, with competing interests involved at any legislation over the environment.

Oil remains a major energy source in the U.S., and changing this reliance requires political initiative.

Global warming policy can be quite contentious because competing interests get involved in the policy-making and implementation process.

There are many concerns about the environmental and political impact of continued dependence on nonrenewable, foreign-produced fossil fuels.
