This is a story I turned from an Press Release, and tried to practise a bit of picking up quotes, important informations from a PR-oriented article.
The propane industry announced today a nationwide effort for tackling environmental issues.
It says the project can help cut greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, lower energy costs, and reduce America’s dependence on foreign oil.
The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) led the goal to inform the country of how expanding the use of propane could begin cutting emission of greenhouse gases immediately.
"Significant and swift progress toward environmental goals is within reach," said Roy Willis, president and CEO of PERC. "The key is to more fully embrace the clean alternative energies, like wind, solar, natural gas, ethanol, and propane, that are already used across the country."
Recently, T. Boone Pickens highlighted propane as an important part of the Pickens Plan, citing propane's environment-friendly profile and ample production in the United States.
"America has the opportunity today to reduce its dependence on foreign oil while protecting the environment by making the most of domestic energy sources," said Pickens. "Propane is clean, it's American-made, and it can be put to work right now."

Annual production of solar panels from the first phase is expected to provide energy which can power 24,000 homes a year or in another word, over the project's lifetime, the first phase facility could manufacture up to 7 gigawatts of solar panels, which can generate electricity equivalent to 3 or 4 coal fired power plants.
The Vice President Biden said, 'the announcement today is part of the unprecedented investment this Administration is making in renewable energy and exactly what the Recovery Act is all about. By investing in the infrastructure and technology of the future, we are not only creating jobs today, but laying the foundation for long-term growth.'
