At a press conference today, President Obama signed the Executive orders on energy independence and outlined a plan for the future. The initiative provides for the creation of jobs through an effort to make buildings more energy efficient. It also provides incentives for fuel efficient cars to be designed and built in the United States. President Obama pledged to work with state governments rather than against them. In response to the 35,000 jobs lost today, the President said to not expect a quick fix. He went on to say that much work needs to be done, and these executive orders are the next step.
