July 4, 2015: Energy Independence Day?


According to survey by the Civil Society Institute (CSI) think tank and its Citizens Lead for Energy Action Now project, 75 percent of Americans support setting a national goal of declaring July 4, 2015 as "Energy Independence Day," a target date for ending our reliance on Middle Eastern and other foreign oil supplies. That number is up from 64% in a similar 2005 survey. 90% say energy and related issues will be important when they vote.

Here's a summary of the findings, and here's the complete survey (PDF format).
