Presidential Candidates SECTION 2 - PAGE 1 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 1,11 How They Stand: On Energy JOHN ANDERSON RONALD REAGAN • "There are no easy answers, there are only dif ficult _ choices. Reducing our dangerous de pendence on for eign oil will be cosdy, not just in terms of dollars, but in terms of our basic life styles." •'"Perhaps now is the time to consider a higher gasoline tax. A 50-cent-a-gallon 'energy- conservation tax' on all motor fuck could reduce our gasoline consump tion by five to 10 percent...Some safeguards would, however, have to ac company any hike in the gasoline tax. Special provision would have to be made for business use of motor fuels... The impact on the elderly could be softened by using some of the gas tax revenues to finance an increase in Social Security retirement benefits." • "I have definitely been converted to the view that hard technologies are much more destructive to the en vironment than the soft-path technol ogies--renewable forms of energy." _ • "I've said that we cannot ignore 300 years' worth of coal reserves...but we must do it in a way that is con sistent with environmental values. We simply cannot build huge plants that spew noxious fumes, in the process of converting coal to liquid hydrocarbons... without environmental concerns." • "I supported the development of the nuclear industry, and I remain committed to preserving nuclear power as an option in the decade ahead. Unless, however, we can achieve and maintain adequate safeguards for the operation of reactors and the management of nuclear wastes, the further expansion of nuclear power must be halted." * * * ••• This issue profile is part of a series titled, "How They Stand," compiled by Common Cause from materials released by the front- running Presidential contenders and from statements reported by major news media since January 1,1980. Although space constraints limit the breadth and depth of these profiles,we have attempted to present statements that are representative of the candidates' views on the issues. While Common Cause neither endorses nor opposes candidates, this project is part of our election year effort to promote informed discussion of the frontrunning candidates' positions on significant issues. A similar project was conducted in 1976. • "There is a limit on energy reserves. We've never had to face that before. And we're going into a new period where there can be just as much ex citement and innovation and achievement and gratification of hu man needs as ever before, but with a much more careful stewardship and a much more re sponsible ap proach to conser vation and the elim ination of waste than Americans jimmycakter T had,to face in the past. • "The high level erf the nation's con sumption of gasoline is the single most important cause of our dependence on foreign oil. Our consumption of gasoline can be reduced with less serious consequences to our economy than if similar action were taken with respect to other petroleum products, such as home heating oil." • ' 'We must never forget that conser vation is the cheapest and cleanest source of energy we have." • "1 have also proposed incentives for the development of energy from solar and biomass sources and have asked Congress for authority to create an Energy "Security Corporation to provide incentives and assistance on a business like basis for the accelerated develop ment of synthetic fuels." • "We do not have the luxury of abandoning nuclear power or imposing a lengthy moratorium on its use... Once we have instituted the necessary reforms to assure safety, we must resume the licensing process promptly so that the new plants which we raced to reduce our dependence on foreign oil can be built and operated. Nuclear power is an option that we should keep open." • "We are not troubled so much by a shortage of energy as we are by a surplus of gwwnment.. Elim inating the De partment of Ener gy and its alloca tion rules would be an important step toward solv ing the energy crisis." •"I favor immediate elimination of all federal price controls on oil and natural gas, because their primary effect has been to hold down domestic energy production...Elimination of controls could increase oil production by up to two to four million barrels per day, and could double natural gas production. In addition, by reducing our dependence on OPEC oil, decontrol would help stabilize ever-rising energy prices." • "Those who preside over the worst energy shortage in our history tell us to use less, so that we will run out of oil, gasoline and natural gas a little more slowly. Conservation is desirable, of course, for we must not waste energy. But conservation is not the sole answer to our energy needs." • "The most serious problems with producing and using coal are solvable: there is thus no reason to allow unnecessarily restrictive federal rules to deprive the American people of this valuable energy source." • "Properly operated, nuclear plants arc among the safest means of energy production. We must ensure that nuclear power plants possess the ut most in protective measures and operate within strict safety standards... We have no choice but to continue to operate and construct nuclear power plants if we arc to meet the energy and job needs of Americans."
