Gore's five point plan for a carbon-free America in 10 years

The full op-ed here; in summary:

1. Large government incentives for the development of solar thermal power plants in the Southwest, wind turbines in the central corridor, and advanced geothermal plants in geologically hot spots.
2. A new, high efficiency power grid for the nation to transport electricity from where renewable sources exist to where the energy is needed.
3. Assist the auto industry in re-focusing on plug-in hybrid cars.
4. Initiate a nationwide campaign to conserve energy in buildings (which are responsible for around 40% of our CO₂ emissions).
5. Lead the way internationally to reduce emissions of carbon and other greenhouse gases (e.g. nitrogen trifluoride, which has an effect on climate 17,000 times stronger than CO₂; a new study has found more of it in the atmostphere than predicted).
