On the David Letterman Show, Stanford Professor Mark Jacobson talks about a science based plan to combat climate change and air pollution. He emphasizes that we need to transition away from fossil fuels and incorporate renewable sources of energy like wind and solar which can meet all our energy demands. However, to do so, government policies need to be shifted away from fossil fuels and towards renewables and electric vehicles. Jacobson has developed plans both nationally and by state for clean electricity, transportation, heating and cooling.
